It takes practice with any new gun. I have a .357 Mag Colt Python with a 4 inch barrel. When I first starting shooting it, it was hard for me to shoot accurately, but after a while it was much easier to control. The biggest problem for me was the shorter sight radius, but after getting used to it, I did fine. Now, I can shoot it as well as any of my semi-autos. As you implied, concentrate on marksmanship basics and you will do fine.Bill wrote:Went to the zone today to practice with the 357 revolver. I must say it was humbling. I was OK at 3-7 with most rounds 10s but at 15 different story. i MUST practice! . I was surprised that the 6in S&W had as much kick as it does, it felt good though.
I am surprised about all the emphasis placed on shooting. It's strange that marksmanship is not taught to students but so much importance is placed on scoring. I do not think it matters if I can hit the broad side of a barn because this is not taught in class. Just talking out loud, yes my wife sez I 'm crazy
