Loosing my touch with wheel guns.

So many guns... so little time, haha. I barely shot anything in a month. Bet I’m rusty all around. By barely I mean 3 mags total from 3 different guns.

Probably grip. Hold your 1911 and analyse your grip on it. Then do the same with the Ruger and see you can see what is changing.

Good call on the grip. If it cools off this eve. I plan on getting back out and shoot some.

One good way to strengthen wrists:

Take an old shovel handle, cut it to @ 24" . At 12" drill a hole large enough to put paracord thru. Attach a weight (one to 3 pounds, whatever's comfortable).

Holding the ends at arm's length, roll up the paracord to lift the weight. Unroll, slowly, to the ground. Repeat in reps, like weightlifting.

But hey, maybe all you need is practice.

I have one of those Russ. :thumbsup:

Had a better outing this eve. Took my 22 revolvers out. Used a thumb over thumb grip.

dry-fire practice..........a lot..........

and bring her in close at the range and start getting decent groups again...... then gradually work your way out a tad.......

Give up on them. Sell all of your wheel guns to me at a stupid cheap price and live happily ever after. Just a suggestion.

The opposite for me, I always bring the 460 and GP 100 to the range and decided to only take the 9mm the last time I went, I shot like a di*** good thing I brought half a case of ammo near the end I was able to shoot a few mags minus a few flyers into a 4 inch sticker at 50 feet

Im going to take the Ruger 40/10mm and 44 mag and SW 45 colt out early tomorrow. If it's not raining.

Wrist and hand strength important.
I started losing accuracy with all my guns semi's and revolvers .
Started working out at the gym and I am back to my normal awesome self.
Old age just creeps up on you.

I started with my wrist roller. Going to add in hammer curls next week.

If you don't have a 2.5 or 5 pound weight you can use a can to do this, rest your forearm on something leaving a few inches off, like on a chair arm rest. Start with your palm facing down holding the weight lift it upwards using only your wrist do this till it hurts in your forearm. Then turn your palm upwards and do the same. You can even do this without weight just resist the movement when you do it as if you were holding/lifting something heavy.
it's a great forearm exercise and you don't have to be standing like with the roller. Hammer curls are good but they will not strengthen your wrists

Eh YUP flipping back forth tween semi and revolver it will take a few to get reacquainted with each... Dead on just takes a few when one is favoring one over the other and when they know you have been you have been playing favorites they just make it difficult on purpose...HAHHAHAHHA

I been doing my exercises. Soon as the heat wave lets up some ill be out shooting.
