I've been doing a drill when I go to the range to try and get myself more accurate while in the standing position. The rifle I'm using is a Colt 6920 with an Aimpoint Pro. It is zeroed to 100 yards, using the 25yd to 100yd zero target I found on this site. The ammo is Wolf Gold 55gr. I'm shooting at a BC-27 target at 50 yards. The drill I've been doing is starting from the low ready with the weapon on safe I raise the rifle, take it off safe and fire two rounds as quickly as I can, put it back on safe and return to the low ready position and repeat. My emphasis is more on accuracy than speed. This drill is done from the 50 yard line.
My question is if 25% of my shots are in the 9 ring, 50% in the 8 ring and 25% in the 7 ring am I an average shooter or am I horrible? I know I have room for improvement, one thing that really bothers me is the sway of the red dot, is there something I can do to minimize this? I try not to jerk the trigger when the dot gets on target but I find it hard to keep it from swaying so much.
