Note how the fundamentals under a bit of stress will produce results.

Thanks for a great weekend. And for great instruction. I run a ranch where coyotes are a problem. While some people hunt them for sport, it is part of my job, but I confess I do enjoy the challenge. Today I shot three of them.
1.)The first one came directly at me at a dead run. I did not fuss the shot. I just squeezed the trigger and followed through.
2.)The next one was about 250 yards away. I focused on the crosshairs and exhaled.
3.) The next one I happened so fast I don't even remember the scenario. But the training stuck.
So thank you.

After our second Appleseed, BlueFeather has a very similar story on a successful Javelina hunt near the Mexican border.
A 70 yard standing shot. With a peep sighted, JC Higgins model 45 rifle in 30-30 that was made the same year she was born.
We ate well that month. O0

What works on the range, works in the real world. ;)

Yes it does! We had a 'graduate' from AS do something similar, riding in the guides vehicle when a boar was seen. They dismounted, boar ran and he dropped it on the fly, one round.
The guide's response, " Where did you learn to shoot like that!!?"
AS grad, "went to an Appleseed!"
Good post, thanks for sharing.
