I've got my new glasses now, so anyone who thought I might be visually impaired enough they could rob me without getting shot better think again. The truth is, my gun shoots better than I can see anyway. I went to the range yesterday to see if my old Remington .22 was still sighted in properly. It was off a couple inches to the right at 25 yards, so I made some adjustments and got some nice three-shot patterns after that. The last group of three actually appeared like one single shot.
Then, I moved the targets down to the 50-yard range and tried again. At that range, I could barely make out the bullseye and couldn't even tell the surrounding circle was bright yellow in color. Still, after firing three rounds, I checked through the spotting scope, and all three were completely within the bullseye.
Being off work because of surgery on my wrist (proximal row carpectomy) has given me lots of time to go to the range for practice. You really do get better the more you do something (well, most things anyway).
