Slowfire, I can barely hit the paper...

Timed fire is a lot better. Then on rapid fire they are almost all in the black. The SF shots are all over the place, maybe weighted a *little* to the right, but there's plenty of fliers to the left too. And up. And down. BTW, I'm left handed.

I kept that rapid fire target to remind me that it's not the gun and not the ammo, the problem is me. (plus it will look good hanging on the wall in my office)

I'm shooting an unmodified 4" .38 Special service revolver (S&W 15-4) with iron sights, and I'm shooting everything double-action -- which is new to me because I grew up shooting SA revolvers. I have to think about not cocking the hammer.

I suppose I could shoot the slow fire as fast as I can and be done in 30 seconds, then stand around looking stupid for 8 or 9 minutes (we seldom go the whole 10 minutes.) But that's probably not the right answer. Any ideas?
