Guys sight their rifle offhand....p.s I asked the guy if he was burning up old ammo and gave me the answer of " No, i'm sighting the phucking thing in" and "I don't hunt with a rest, so why would i sight in with one" Then he wondered why it took him a box of shell's to get close, And no he didn't get it sighted in, he just run out of ammo.
People using human silhouette targets to sight in deer rifles.
Guys putting their finger(s) on the barrel.
Man, i could be here all night with this, Point being we would criticize a guy for not practing with a bow but why do rifle shooters not get the same criticism?
We must have ran into the same people!!!!! I am a Firearms Instructor and Sniper for my agency and have been involved with weapons in various agencies and departments I have worked for over 20yrs and it never fails to amaze me at the antics I see and hear of how people conceive on how to properly sight in a weapon. And to think that I work with some of these brainyacks!!!!
