quick question

aramisvi

Hey everyone, our firearm deer season opens in two days, I have been doing a lot for out trip, have class tomorrow, today I sighted in my muzzleloader, it is a x-150 winchester with 3-9x bushnell banner scope on top, i cleaned it afterwards really good, probably the best ever, well in the cleaning process I left the stock attached, afterwards i was making sure everything was still torqued down good, and the action screws were tight, but i tightened them a little bit more, my question is, after tightening the action screws, PROBABLY not even a 1/2 turn more, will this significantly throw off my poi?...or should i be set and not worry about this?...i really don't have the time to mess around resighting it it, at 50 yards i set it so it hit 2" high so it was pretty good out to 100, is this going to screw me up or no?

can any of you guys determine what type of gun a person should buy or help correct problems with accuracy just by looking at pics of targets?

problems not so much with the gun itself but with hand position, control, etc.

The Michigan opener for deer is monday, i recently made sure my ultra slug hunter was sighted in, i shot it, then took it apart and cleaned it, would removing the barrel from the frame and the forearm change the point of impact, i didn't mess with the sights, but will it change it significantly? I never noticed a change in where in hits before when I took it apart...should i be fine for the opener?

About how much is 60 inchpounds, I ask because that is how much the HS precision stock should be tightend down from what ive seen. Just wondering, is that just barely hand tight, or real tight...i dont have a guage and want to shoot. Thanks

Shoot the gun in question more so you can get accustom to it. The more you shoot it, in theory, the better you should get.

usually, when i go to the range, i try different guns and put atleast 2 boxes through it. i'm a fast learner and get a pretty good feel as to how things fit quickly.
the reason i ask is some of the guns i want, i have problems with aiming accurately, while those i don't, i am more than surprised at how well i did. my latest was yesterday a colt m1911a1 in .45. not a .45 fan, but, check out my post in the general forums http://forums.gunbroker.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=229387.

I think it was the Army that had a "Corrective Target". Depending on where you hit it it would have suggestions on how to correct the problem, I'll see if I can find it.

the type of gun is very little of importance when learning how to shoot, the shooter is the main part, you need to learn proper grip, trigger control, and above all focus

edit: at this point of your shooting you have no bad habits to break, trust me once have have them it may take months, and thousands of rounds to correct them, you will do yourself good to spend 90% of your time right now reading, and dry fire practice with 10% of your time on live fire
