Introduction:
Modern military practice in regards to riflemanship hinges on repetitive drill in a few standard firing modes, until the rank and file learns an intuitive feel for projectile behavior, i.e. deviation from path, altitude loss over distance etc. In this manner, it is hoped that soldiers who need to return fire do so instinctively, in reaction to the external world, no different than one learns to expect an oncoming cars behavior in an intersection. 50 meters is determined to be the maximum effective range of a soldier armed with a M16-family assault rifle, assisted only with iron site (no magnification or focal point).
This project examines the relationship between a subject's experience with firing projectiles, and their shooting accuracy. Shooting accuracy here is defined as a function of the spread of a burst of five rounds (i.e. the distance of each shot from the center of the target), the distance from shooter to target, and the time required to fire five rounds.
