Here is my targetIMG_3141.jpg
How accurately can you shoot at 25 yards off hand? This is a 5.5 inch target

My range is too restrictive. They don't let us shoot while rappelling upside down. 🤔

I don't know what you are getting at? I can do that all day long with any of my Glocks depending on rate of fire. My son's Cannik, which he ran at one of our low key matches yesterday, is very accurate. I would imagine that in slow fire he'd keep them all in the size of your sticker.

Uh, the NRA 25 yard slow fire target 10 ring is 1.5ish inches, the timed and rapid 10 ring is 3.50ish. Bullseye is shot offhand, while not an everyday occurrence, I shot several 100's on both targets using a PPC revolver (model 10 frame, bomar rib, douglas barrel built by a friend) and open sights, it got better when they allowed aimpoints, raised my average about 6 points.

Not a bad target, though. Generally a circle of impacts outside the bull mean you are coming off the front sight and looking at the target. Hard focus on the front sight. What helped drive that into my head was shooting at the back of B-27 targets printed on white paper at 50 yard. The only thing to look at is your front sight.

Edit to add: before someone gets the impression I was a Camp Perry NRA bullseye shooter, I definitely am not. Our state peace officers association used to shoot both bullseye and PPC. I won bullseye several times, but was generally top 5. It is a relaxing hobby, though.

For some reason your title reminded me of shooting with your weak hand. Makes for interesting practice.

My attached image shows that I used a red dot

My target is 5.5 inches. How big do you think the 10 ring is in this target?
