I went out to the range today with a few copies of the Grapefruit .PDF. I was shooting my patrol rifle, a Bushmaster M4A3 with an EOTech sight.
Here's the rifle:
Well, I did not do as well as I thought I might. I rarely shoot standing from the 50yd line, usually it's at the 25yd line. I shot the targets from a fighting position, not the bladed, formal "Off-Hand" position. I started from the ready position, then mentally gave myself the "go" command, came up on target, and fired. I repeated this process for each shot. Some targets were shot twice, some three times, because I really wasn't counting.
My best target: 2/2 hits
My worst: 1/3 hits
Then I moved to the 25yd line, and let r' rip! I gave myself the "go" command, came up on target, and fired two to three quick shots. I got a little too quick on the trigger a couple times and fired before I was on target. Oops...
I was very disappointed I missed the two, but I was shooting a LOT faster than at the 50yd line.
It was fun, and educational. I'm glad I read this thread, printed off the .pdf and made the time to "get out there."
