Shooting low

Seriously though do you grip with thumbs forward and your left wrist cocked forward? This helps me hold the gun better than any other grip I've tried. I'm much more consistant with this method. The other thing is I had a little trouble with the stock trigger. I shoot all my other guns just fine so I went with the PRP lever and match springs. Now it's miles better. The #1 tip though is practice trigger squeeze without any adverse movements.

I do grip with thumbs forward. I don't know, maybe I can practice dry firing & try it again next week.
I had thought about doing some trigger upgrades but thought that I would try to get approx 500-600 rounds through it first to see how everything loosens up.
No, it's not buckshot. Had it been, it would have only been about a dollar's worth. That's $26 worth of WWB.

By the way, thanks for all the help posting the picture & shooting tips.

A tip someone gave me to help cure this: go to the range with a friend, have the friend load your magazine without you looking. Every now and then in the stack, your friend should insert some Snap Caps. Then you take the mag into your gun and shoot like always. You'll be amazed when the gun dips way down one time without that BANG you're used to.

Curing the problem then involves lots of dry fire practice where you SLOWLY squeeze back on the trigger such that it surprises you when it breaks. Keep repeating this while maintaining a "front sight" focus. Eventually you should be able to increase the speed of your pull without the muzzle dip.

Helped me, but I ain't completely cured yet.
