A friend and I went to the range on Tryon Rd. in Garner yesterday and it was a good experience.I OC'd to the shop, and back home. No problems.
But what was interesting was how much better/accurate I got as I practiced. I'm not a "nervous" person (I race sports cars at 130 mph and am perfectly comfortable going door-to-door into a right-hand 90 mph sweeper at the limit) but I did feel more comfortable after shooting.
It took about 10 rounds of 9mm for me to get my aim dialed-in and I was about 95% inside a 15"X15" target at about 20 ft. from then-on. We each shot about 75 rounds total; 10 at a time. I also shot my friend's Springfield 9mm subcompact because I'm getting a CHP gun when my permit arrives; should be about a week.
I've ownedmy Ruger P89 for about 12 years and would go to the range about once per year. That's not enough.
Now, I'll go once per month.

. I practice on a regular basis and rarely ever feel like I've improved.
