OT: Check your Reaction time!
« on: March 12, 2008, 06:30:12 AM »
I found this while looking for .379" jacketed bullets, which I did find!! http://www.custombullets.com/pricelist.php

See how fast your reflexes are!  ;D

Best I could do was .328 seconds.

 I have heard that shooting straight was as important, and perhaps more so, than shooting quickly. That is what makes these single shot Handis such a viable hunting tool....<><...;D

Thanks!!!!!!!! That what I want to know because I just did another at .031 and could not save it by any way I know of. It says well done and gives your time but you just can't save it to a file. Dale

I got a .031 by anticipating it, but my actual reaction time is still in the low to mid .3s.

I've been honing and polishing the left button.  I believe the 12 ounce click is affecting my reaction time.
