Woops Groups

I boasted in comments for an entry at Astro's how I did 3" groups with my short Mosin (I have a cut-down known as "Model 59" in America). Since I had 5 rounds left from the season, I took it with me to the range today, with explicit purpose to take a picture of the group.

As a result, I'm having a crow for supper tonight. The orange circle is it. The problem is, I started flinching badly; even caught myself closing eyes. For comparison, the green circle is set around 10 shots from my 5.56 Browning, for which I wasn't straining too much.

BTW, it looks like I wasn't to the range for about a year. I went through the door where office used to be, and a club staffer explained that the office was relocated 8 months ago. I blame anime.
