I think it has to do with seeing instant results, shooting at 250 yds at a 6 inch gong you can hear the smack and ring after the shotand see it swingwith the scope [I can barely see it with out the scope] and sitting there trying to hide the smile when I consistantly hit it and some of the high power rifle guys miss it, well after I won a couple times the range captain bar muzzle loaders from the rifle shoot.
