Free Handed Standing Unsupported

[just-A-snap 1,269]

23 August 2016 – Found it very hard holding the Rifle Unsupported, lack of strength in my hands and arms is still a big problem.

 

Some shots with the .177 BSA Lightning XL Tactical Spring Air rifle, shot at Twenty-Two Yards. AIR ARMS Diabolo Field 8.4 Grains, 4.52. Hawke Eclipse 3-12x50 AO IR Mil-Dot Scope at 10x and 7x

If you had included a shot of you hokding the rifle perhaps we could have helped you with your stance?

 

It's not bad shooting though.

My hands and arms are still very weak Mac, even the Lightning scoped is heavy for me. If I shoot when I am fresh, much better results. Will post my progress.

VIZLAUK IS ONE OF THE BEST UNSUPPORTED SHOOTERS IV SEEN

 

but he shoots this way all the time and has told me and shown me how he dose it

 

but its just not for me snap

 

The man is unbelievable to watch and out to some good distances to and all pellets in the kill zone one shot after another

 

with both spring and pcp

 

only reason he has a pod on his pcp is for when we go back to the tanks so he can put it down mate or have a slash lol

I will never be able again to shoot as I once did way back in my younger days Mac. Defiantly will never take a shot at any live quarry Free Handed that for sure.

If your arms are getting tired then more than likely you are engaging too much muscle rather than solid, bone to bone.

I have big problems with the strength in my hand and arms, I am thankful to be able to use the rifle at all freehanded.

I do free hand shots (sometimes). I find it best if I don't hold too far up the gun and try keep my elbow in to my side. After that is all about the exhale.

OK some of you have found me out, I do not have problems with my Hands and Arms. My real Name is Christy Brown, I mostly shoot with My Left Foot but just for kicks I have been shooting with the right one to confuse some on The Hunting Life.

 

My real Name is Christy Brown some think that I DIED in 1989, I did not I just changed my name to Daniel Day-Lewis. So I am SORRY if I have confused any one with how I hold my rifle or the stance that I take.

 

All the very best
