Could the empty beer carton have something to do with the blurry vision?

Thought you were supposed to wait 'til after the shooting ended to imbibe on the spirits?

SOLUTION: ONLY shoot with the 18.5.

You're welcome.

Beer was after the fact.

Sad part is I still shoot a shootie batter at a hundred yards then a rifle

Pics say "slugs on target". Works for me.

It has happened to me. How did I correct it you ask? I removed the front sight/bead. Keep your eyes on the target and shoulder the weapon, pull trigger. With practice, you will be on target every time.
