[quote="airgun_novice"]Dear guruji/ upacharyaji/ Jitu/ Dev et al,
Another set of silly musings and Qs from me:
Q1. What is exactly a "surprise shot" ? How does *it* break ? How does one "continue" the shot after first pull since there is a positive obstruction after the first pull ends.
Q2. How does one avoid *anticipation* - Q2.1 of shot break ? Q2.2 of recoil ? Considering the two pulls that is...
Q3. A few moments after the shot during follow through, I find that the foresight has dipped slightly and I pull it up to re-align. Then the Q pops up - "To what end ? Elvis has exited the building." Incidentally, I found that I had registered this point before and Jitu also seems to have faced the same problem.
Q4. Immediately after the trigger break, I notice that foresight goes to the left and almost aligns with the left wall of the rear sight and I make a conscious effort to center it. But then once again the same Q - "Am I in Las Vegas ? How many Elvises do I see ?"
Q5. Any idea if increasing the terminal velocity is desirable due to reduction in lock time ? Would that increase the accuracy ? May be ... just may be ?

1. AGN should perfect his Hand & Eye coordination
2. Work on a 'steady hold' from the time of aiming, sight aligning, sustaining, trigger relasing & follow through.

"Why in tarnation should a contraption shorter than your fore-arm that spews a 'moong dal' sized lead pellet as the result of the sudden release of compressed gas / air (read flatulence!!!) should cause so much of agony & ecstacy to the person whose ultimate act is to use his / her crooked index finger to initiate it

Que Sera Sera!!!
