Cool, will see what I can find to do in dryfire, and hope to see you soon.

Get hold of Chenenay and order the Steve Anderson books.

Quotes like this remind me just of how different slow is.. For you slow is very different to me...The top shooters of the day were shooting just under a round a second.110 round course 97 seconds winner.When I say slow I'm talking 600 seconds for 110 rounds

Shot per second not including moving time, reloading etc. aim, stap, 1 second, tap. Move to next target. Not possible to do a 25 shot stage in 25 seconds.

You’re right.

Those are normally 16-17 second stages.

Unless they’re fast ones.

Are you talking about long range rifle?

[DstUrges]

Mmm.They shot a 18 round stage with 2 reloads and 3 movement points in 13 seconds including some very small target behind bin threats...Way outa my current skill level and nothing I cant get to with a few 1000 hours of dry fire

You gents are not following or reading or understanding. I made a comment previously to a new shooter that he need not worry about times at first. If he can manage 1 shot per second, on target and arevlearning and safe it is fine IMO. I never said that for experienced shooters it is not possible, so please deflate. Thanks.

Deflate ?

Also a new shooters isn’t going to magically get faster. They need to be safe. But I’ve seen more issues with them artistically slwoing down to much and building stuff up until they make a mistake than by them going at the pace their sights and skill allow. Just like any shooter. They shouldn’t be thinking about time at all. They should be thinking about the job at hand.

ps. If this many people “misunderstood” you it’s not us reading incorrectly. It’s your explanation that’s lacking.
