Well, the gun I used was a .22 LR Smith & Wesson (Model 42 I think) with a big red-dot sight mounted on top (plus I got to put a lot of rounds through it to get used to it, since .22s are much cheaper). Plus it had a barrel weight and in .22, staying on target is pretty easy. With the sight I was really good, but with an open sight .45, I faired much worse. Same with the .38 Masterpiece.
I'm sure you're a great shooter, but I was bragging about good shooting when I shouldn't have (I need to be good with more than one race gun). Thanks for catching that. I'll be sure to be the next Jerry Miculek before I try to brag again.
