Are we ever satisfied ??

Post by native hunter »

It seems that every time I go to the range and play I come home thinking, what if I tried this or that and maybe if I done this it would have been different.!!
I shot three sub x5 shot .200 thou groups with 3 different brands of ammo and only reason I came home was I had no more ammo, (only took what was I'n the kit).
So who else thinks that it can always be imProved on ??
Seems like I'm chasin my tail ! :lol:

Native, that's what I love about shooting. If we went home thinking that was "perfect" then either we are settling for "close enough" or deluding ourselves.

Well in group shooting the perfect group has still to be shot. I visited the McMillan factory in Phoenix and saw the .009 group, and actually held the rifle that shot it. Nothing special, just a well made rifle.

So, we will never be satisfied until we have all shot the perfect group. Could take some time.
