The one thing I really appreciate about my new Valor is how much focus and concentration can improve my shooting. I know that sounds silly but other firearms I own and shoot well don't improve as much as the Valor when I'm really trying. It just goes to show that this one can shoot better than me any day of the week.
The straight 8s are still taking a little getting used to but this was form 50 feet with a little concentration, not bad

Looks good, I call it my zen moment when the feet, hips, shoulders, elbows wrist eyes and breathing reach the moment of stillness as the finger squeezes.
