Factors that affect accuracy

[Beiruty]

4 targets in, perfect score so far, need to get perfect score on 5th with at least 3 x's to stay in the top 3 ..........

Hoping your buddies do good & hoping your buddies don't do better than you !

Get to 5th target so far 4, 10's with 2 x's....... Eyes hurt, neck hurts, sholders hurt, hands trembling gotta make that x, gotta make that x .......

Boom ..... It's a 9.....,

This is the biggest hurdle i face when shooting for score.

Let us call it shooting induced stress.
I will add shooter focus vs speed. As a pistol weekend pistol competition shooter, after the beep, and as soon as I start racing the shooting stage, my mind would focus on the sight/trigger and forget about the course of fire, so missing to shoot a target, shooting a no-shoot target, or not following the course of fire, do happen

1) great jackets.
2) great barrels.
3) the ability to tune for the condition.
4) the ability to drive it.

YMMV

Seeing that makes me think of racing in a Corvette on an off road desert course.

The list is long and honestly confusing. Many of the factors are out of the control of the shooter.

Build the best rifle you can, buy the best glass you can, prioritize case prep and do a thorough load development with the best components you can afford, then practice a lot.
