Yeah , I can track when I started improving to when I started shooting 1 rifle and not messing with the load between matches. Get it tuned and shoot the same rifle and load the rest of the year and see where you are then.
Frustrated by my poor shooting!

A personal problem is being too negative.
There is value in being critical, but don’t dwell on it. Make a bad shot and most people start to over ANALyze what they did wrong. Pulled instead of pressed the trigger, butt cheeks were too tight, forgot to breathe. Concentrating on the negative.
Then when we do something right, it’s a rush to the next shot. No time spent remembering the right feeling.
That’s backwards. Make a good shot and replay that over and over. How did the finger feel on trigger when it was right?
Bow hunting is the perfect example. You have a perfect heart shot lined up with a tree branch in the line of sight, but not the flight path. The mind flips back and forth between the branch and heart. Your last thought, branch or heart, is where the arrow goes. It’s a minor difference, hit the heart, don’t hit the branch. One is a positive thought, the other negative.

The problem in between the ears.......We ALL have great equipment. It can be easily fixed with a little adjustment to the ol' Grey Matter.
This book has helped me. I go back to it often, with much of it highlighted. It is a quick read and easily put into practice......Best Of Luck....( luck really does have very little to do with it )
