point blank

[horsepwr]

Growing up, you hear "point-blank range" used when someone speaks of a shooting that happens at very close distance. (within a few feet or so). Most people don't know that point-blank could be 100yrds...whatever.
Point Blank is the distance a bullet can travel on flat trajectory.<--not exact definition, but you know what I mean.
So almost all domestic shootings happen at point-blank range. Unless you have a sharp-shooter type situation. Or those highway shooters that happen once in a while.
Just something that came to mind while listening to the morning news.

Re: point blank

I took CCW classes, so yeah i know about it. Its mostly for target practice, but i like to sharp shoot at far distances. After so long doin it, it becomes reflex. I dont even have to aim, well not in the slow aspect. I see an object trajectory lift the gun and shoot..Eye/hand instinctive reflex. You know what i mean.

Re: point blank

damn Michelle! I don't think I can relate. Sounds like you've developed a hell of an eye and muscle memory for it though!
