I suppose you have never really looked at the .22s they use in the

barrel. Muzzle flip may not mean much shooting water bottles in slow
fire but when 5 shots in 4 seconds is necessary to be competitive at
all, a little flip is the difference between playing the game or going
home.

With the guys I shoot with 5 shots in 3 seconds or less is par for the
course if you want to do well. That includes the time needed to drop
your hands from shoulder high, pick the gun up from the bench (or draw
from a holster), and get on target. My best ever is 2.6 seconds.

Multiple targets?



None of the women I've been with in my lifetime would be impressed by a
guy who could shoot his load in three seconds or less, but it makes
sense for W'hine, most women would say.

I didn't realize that was what we were talking about but it does
explain why you are so bothered by long barrels, ;-)

That deserves a huge ~snerk~, but I'm trying to be on good behavior.

But H-BAR's are ok, probably because the usually have a thicker girth...
