Trigger pull or controlled jerk
My friend and I shoot together constantly. We are both accomplished shots, but I have noticed he can get 5 rounds off much quicker then myself. That said, his groups, dot drills or what have you are never as good as my own. He gets on the trigger rather quickly, but I always have a long slow pull.
The scenario: Using a bolt gun, lets say you have 3 milk jugs full of water as targets, 100,300 and 400 yards with 8 seconds to engage all three and a $100.00 bet just to add pressure.
With the time restraints, for me to win, my slow trigger pull would have to fall by the wayside. So my question is: When shooting a tactical rifle, should I practice some other form of trigger control or stick with what I know, and be much slower.
