I was at the range today with my 10/22. Usually what I'll do is I'll sling up, go prone, and fire 10 shots in about 30 seconds or so...pretty much as fast as I can get a sight picture. The gun has Tech Sights, a VQ trigger kit, and the sling. Other than that, it's stock and I use bulk ammo.
I'm getting 6-8 moa (1.5-2") groups at 25 yards.
With my M1As I do worse. Like 6-10 moa groups at 25 yards. I think it's because they have more recoil and I get nervous because they're so expensive to shoot.
I measure my groups from the center of each of my furthest shots away in a group.
I feel like I have the fundamentals down well. My only problem is that on about 10 or 15% of my shots with my centerfire rifles I'll close my eyes just after I pull the trigger. I'm not very good at calling my shots. I try to mitigate this by dry firing a lot while I'm at the range in between live fire.
Can someone please tell me how to properly do a "hasty sling?" Today I found that I actually shot worse using a "hasty sling" standing than I did standing unsupported.
I feel like something's missing. Like I can do better. Any thoughts?
