Free Handed Standing Unsupported Air Rifle Shooting Sunday 2nd April 2017

Film my daily Routine of Hands and Arms Strength Therapy, achieved by Free Handed Standing Unsupported Air Rifle Shooting Practice. BSA Lightning XL SE .177 Tactical Spring Air rifle, with AIR ARMS Diabolo Field, 8.4 Grains, 4.52 .177 pellets. Hawke Eclipse 3-12x50 AO IR Mil-Dot Scope set at Ten Times Magnification. 

The Distance was at Fifteen Yards and it took no more Than Four Minutes to complete. Shooting was as fast as I could go before my Hands and Arms gave out completely and it became to Dangerous with any more shots. Two Shots Went Wild, First wild shot was Four Inches High From Top left Hand Bull’s Eye, Second wild shot was Two inches Low From Bottom Left Bull’s Eye.
Just one more day but again all is good, some you win and some you lose. All said and done I cannot and will not complain. I think that it was a good day today. Therapy and Shooting Practice.

All the very best

I had a .177 lightning se and it was probably the most hold sensitive Springer I've ever shot. You really had to hold it so a 4 year old could take it out of your hands when shouldered.

Your groups look like they're coming on nicely pal.

If it was me, I would try sitting and shooting from a rest/table etc and get it shooting pellet on pellet for a good full tin and then move onto sitting resting on your knee for the same until your hold is exactly the same every time and then you know how much pressure is needed on the stock and foreend for your free standing shots.

Stick at it pal???

My shooting is fine when at rest. I am shooting Standing Free Handed Unsupported to try and build the strength that I have left in my hands and arms, or at worst keep them as they are now.

Thank you mattwhite and all the very best mate
