    “Hitting what you want where you find it..” is kinda to me what shooting is about. My second oldest has taken you smallbore shooting. The more he shoots the better the average score happens. He’ll start doing club circuits next year.

    It’s not for me. I go and shoot small game mainly with .22 or 17HMR. Not many rounds fired in a week but usually connecting with a animal of some sort. I miss as well. The misses i put down to a bad rest/over thinking etc etc. The firearms are accurate for the job. So it’s the human factor (in my experience) that causes the misses. I don’t do a lot of range work(if any). Might put a few rounds for functionality reasons through if I’ve bought a different brand of ammo to try it or get kids to have a plink. As Tussock has eluded to, kids keep you poor. I like to believe I have enough muscle memory built you to anytime get a rifle and go and shoot something with a result. These are my findings for my conditions.
