I agree, don't get discouraged. I was having lousy scores for a couple of months and then all of sudden the last couple of range sessions things starting picking up. I think I have to give credit to a bunch of little things and the fact that the more you shoot the more you start figuring out what works and what doesn't for you. Keep trying new things and then every now and then go back to them and try them again. Because whether you realize it or not, every time you go to the range and seriously practice you are improving. Sometimes I don't see the improvement for a few sessions later but I do improve.
As far as scope power goes, I have to agree with you. I'm 48 and the eyes aren't what they used to be. I don't wear glasses but since I switched from 18x to 32x I can see the target better and can concentrate on a part of the target, not just trying to keep it on the center.
The main thing is keep shooting and practice. I get frustrated some times. Then I try to lighten up and just have a fun session and just relax. Then go back to the serious stuff.
