How often do you get a flyer?

Post by redrum » 03 Dec 2014, 8:27 am

I know this will vary depending on how seriously people are doing their reloading but just wanting some points of reference to compare to my own. To see how I'm doing.

How often do you get a flyer with your hand loads? Rough estimate is as good.

1/20? 50?
Good news, everyone!

One that's a clear flyer and not a shot I might have pulled...

Maybe 1 in 30?

Rough guess there...

More with the .22 I think.

You can hear them. Bang, bang, puff, bang, bang, crack, bang.

1 in 20 is a bit off from the sound of it maybe

Every shot I miss.

All flyers, never my fault.

Totally legit explanation :mrgreen:

About every time I shoot!

Now that I think about it, it seems like 1 / 10 for me... But that seems really high?

Better stop thinking about it... I might realise I'm a crappy shot! :lol:

I came to accept that truth a long time ago :lol:

Doesn't make shooting any less fun though ;)

I think a lot of what people put down as 'flyers' can be attributed to the shooter.

A clear, miles off, 'proper' flyer... 1 in 30?

Those 'no junk mail' signs sure as hell don't work.

Maybe leaving a bullet on the mailbox will send the message :lol:
