Can you miss the target before you even shoot? | Little Crow Gunworks

- In this video we take a look at a target that was shot by two different shooters, using the same rifle, same ammo, same equipment.
The point of impact should be the same, right?

The second target on the top right. No argument, just seen many shooters "pull" a shot and not call it. I`ve also seen them chase impacts all over the board, not call them, and blame everything except themselves, never geting the rifle zeroed.
I don`t often hear the term used, yet it is extreamly useful in precision shooting. New shooters don`t know that, as was the case with me at one time.
But you`re point was well made.
We don't chase impacts. We hold center on the white dots as best we can and let physics do the rest. Keep in mind, we shot this at 200yds so the dispersion would be more obvious. Making it easier to see how the different variables and shooting positions can effect impact location.
Another good video! Many might not have ever thought about this, and it can keep them from chasing their tail.
If you don't know, you don't know.
This type of info goes a long way. Appreciate it. Thank you. (Nice groups)
Thanks Mark! It was one of those things that Dale and I knew intuitively, but never actually tested it. It was cool to see the difference. I think at 100yds it would be difficult to see. But at 200yds it's obvious.
Just catching up on some of your videos. My son and I shoot one minute, at 100, different. Always have, but a good point made as to why you should not trust someone else too sight your rifle.
BTB, was that high right shot called?
If you're shooting deer sized targets at short range, it doesn't really matter. But longer shots on smaller targets, can cause a miss, even if the shooter did everything right and it was only the "zeroing error" that caused the miss.
Which high right shot? We had zero "pulled shots" on this entire board. What you see, was just the natural dispersion of the shooting system. Thanks for watching.
Any thoughts on why the tripod shots were the worst?
Great question.
With the tripod, we (humans) have the greatest influence on the rifle.
On the Bench, we have far less influence. Prone, even less.
In general, two points of contact with something solid (not a human) will always be more stable than 1 point of contact. Also, the farther apart those two points are, the less influence we flawed humans will have on the system.
Thanks for watching!
Nice hat
Thanks man!
@LittleCrowGunworks were did you get it?
Blackjack Bullets. They went out of business during the component shortage.
Interesting
Thanks for watching!
