... are you an accurate shooter?
I have only fired pistols, never a rifle. It was at an outside gun range and I was aiming at the generic paper target around 15 yards away (could have been further) but I wasn't a great shot. Pretty wide cluster and I definitely missed it a few times entirely IIRC.
How about you?
It isnt all that difficult to become a an accurate shooter on a range. Learning to breathe properly, stance and grip, along with a little practice, and you would get pretty good.
I dont really shoot like that anymore. I like to create little scenarios in my head, and work tactically from that. For me my range time consists of getting the gun from my holster to shots on target as quickly as possible.
That's a very smart way to approach it.
It's one thing if you're practicing firing after you've held it for a few minutes and another to practice just after you draw it.
I am assuming that motion becomes natural after enough repetition.

I'm a decent shot with a handgun but I don't practice as much as I should anymore. Bought the wife a 9mm for valentines day a few years back and she caught on quickly. She had never shot before but now she's better than I am. We bought some of those battleships targets and she was beating me after only a few times at the range lol.
It's smart to teach your wife how to not only use a weapon but how to use it effectively and efficiently.

Now you've got a lifetime shooting buddy.
Best part is now when we hear a noise at night I can have her clear the house and I can go back to sleep.

In my experience, women are better shots with handguns than men are. My wife stands wrong, holds her pistol in a limp-wristed manner, but her shot group is about the size of a 50-cent piece. Meanwhile, I'm just making sure to make contact in a meaningful way.
She's terrible with a rifle though, so there's that.

You surely have proper form, technique, etc and have a worse shot than someone with less training.
Could be luck but there's something to what you're saying.

Every man or young man that has ever killed a deer can tell me what the weapon and caliber of weapon. All but one, Arty.

I dont trust ripper with a fire arm....I dont even trust him with a butter knife
Ripper is batshit crazy, but I would trust him to use a firearm properly 100 times out of 100 compared to you Artie.
That makes you a confirmed absolute stupid fuck..
I'm no stranger to fire arms moron...
But keep pushing your fake persona of me...its all you got....fake

Yep, he's as full of lies about his experience with firearms as he is with everything else. And everyone knows it. Again, all but one.

You're a ditz Artie. And you claim expertise in everything when it's obvious you're mediocre at best in most things. Ripper is nuts, but he would know how to clean and assemble a gun in two minutes. You wouldn't have a clue.
