Well, It might be more of a question than a riddle! I decided to get the CZ 457 .22 WMR bolt action out for a little range practice. This gun is quickly becoming a favorite and I'll probably up for a .22 LR barrel soon to save a little money on ammo. At 25 yards, simply resting on a bench, I began to walk the impact up to the bullseye as seen here:  Once I got her dialed in, here was the best 5 shot group:  Now, here is the interesting thing. I've made one major change that has drastically improved my accuracy. Matter of fact it has surprised me how simple it was. I'll leave it there for awhile. Shoot me some answers on what it might be?!?! |

Focus on the target not the sight.

If you where glasses, you put a piece of tape on the non dominate side of your glasses ?

You now WEAR your glasses to shoot?
I have an uncle that wears glasses, but not to shoot and I think that is why he is so hit and miss anymore.

When I was shooting trap and skeet Dave Burgess used to have us put tape on our shooting glasses, He was a great teacher. |

Y’all are basically right on target, or at least really close with the answer and it does involve my eyes.
After too many years of neglect, I finally got a new prescription for my progressive lenses. While I was at it, I ordered a set of prescription safety glasses. I need them for work and it turns out they are excellent at the shooting range.
I kind of figured the new glasses would be an improvement, but I was pleasantly surprised at the difference they made.

Down the road I’ll probably end up shooting/hunting left handed as I have Age Related Macular Degeneration in my right eye. It makes things a bit blurry right smack dab in the middle of my vision.
Got to do what you’ve got to do...
