Re: speed of shooting


Darryl,


I am actually a far better shot in the field and at moving / running game
than I am at a target - particularly at 100 Yards with a Double Rifle
or Bolt Action. I also find it hard to get motivated shooting an 8" Black Bull
on a target !!!

Speed and Accuracy
With Bolt actions, to simulate a running target (not many ranges have a running
target), set up 3 separate targets at 25 or 50 yards, about 20 ft apart.

With a 30/06, 308 BA Rifle and below), you should be able to fire
4 well aimed shots (2 into the first, one in each of the others) at the targets
in 10 seconds and get a kill zone shot wth each.

For 338 and above, it takes longer as more recoil to recover from.

I would suggest anyone trying it to practise slowly on the accuracy side
first and practice relading without demounting the gun from the shoulder
and then gradually increase the speed you shoot until you get away 4 kill
shot in 10 seconds.
