Handgun sight/aiming technique/setup???
I am having a hard time adjusting to handgun shooting from years of rifle/shotgun, the last few years almost exclusive shotgun so my triggerering is horrible but my main problem is the difference in aiming.
Due to laws over here to get a license you need to pass both a written test and a accuracy test (you actually have to renew it each year)
the test is 25 meters, 5 shots, maximum points 50 and the passing grade is 46 with a 22lr. I am hovering at 35-40points
The club pistols are set up so you aim at the bottom black edge of the circle. as a rifle shooter (with scopes only) I can't get it out of my head to put the sight where I want to hit when I am holding the pistol.
Are there pros and cons to having it like that or having point of aim and point of impact the same?
Just suck it up and continue practising?
