SR22p Aim Small/Miss Small - Target photo

I went out beside the house this afternoon - a grey, windy, nasty day. I decided to try the "aim small / miss small" approach today as I have found it helpful in the past. I may not have exactly "missed small". The target is a 5.5" bulls-eye. I was shooting off-hand two hand hold @ 25 yards. Except for the 2 hits that were off the target (circled in red), I was happy with the results. CCI Mini-Mag ammo...10 rounds.

Dave ... At 25 yards that 5.5" target looks pretty darn small . I'd say for a gray windy day you did pretty good

The SR22 is a neat little pistol. I keep waffling on whether I want one. There's something about small handguns. They're just handy

Nice! I can't shoot at that range anymore. The target has gotten soooo small!

Nice shooting WVDave, I'm surprised you could even see it at that distance...

At 25 yards with my SR22P, I'm constantly getting 1" groups.....

Wait is that my alarm clock ringing? Yup, I was dreaming.

Good shooting WvDave.

Even though the weather wasn't too good, it's a good idea to practice in such conditions every once in a while. Makes for a very interesting day to see how a person can match up with mother nature. I found a really nice Bulldog holster for mine to fit into which I truly like the idea of having the extra magazine availability if I were out in the woods with it. I also really enjoy my SR22 and I would like to eventually get a fiberoptic front sight for mine. The older I'm getting it's just the right fix for me.

The SR22 is a great gun. Very accurate within 25 yards IMHO.

Looks like good shooting to me considering the conditions. I should do so well.

I'm going to buy an SR22 very soon. It just sounds too good to do without.
