Default Here yesterday , gone today

All this talk about shooting , especially long range shooting made me unable to resist going out today . I had a new gun to sight in and since the wind was totally calm and the temperature was almost 50 I figured it don't get any better . I had put a 4x16 power scope on so that I could shoot long range. My goal today was simply to sight in at 100 yards and get it on paper . Then start moving back .
Well things didn't go to good .
I got it close after only 3 shots but couldn't achieve a good enough group at a 100 yards to allow me to move back . About a 4 inch group and it wasn't the bullet or load . It was movement . I could see the wiggling around . I couldn't hold steady no matter what I did . I hope this isn't a sign of the future . After 15 shots I gave up.
They were all in a 4 inch area but should have been less than an inch.
Way to much movement to even shoot a 100 yards little lone further .
Guess I will try another day and see if it still looks like I have palsy .
Terrible range session
