    Mike, put some time into your grip, the cup in saucer went out in the 80's..

    Wrap both hands around that bad boy, as high up as you can, point your thumbs down the slide, don't cross them.
    You can expect much more control with a good grip.

    Thanks for the advice. I learned how to shoot from my dad in the 80's so maybe that explains it.
