The shooting method described as swinging the gun faster than the target and passing the muzzle before firing is called?

• A. Swing-through
• B. Point-and-shoot
• C. Snap-shot
• D. Stop-and-go

Answer: (A)

Swing-through is the method where you move the gun forward faster than the target, letting the muzzle pass ahead of the target before you fire. The shot is timed as the gun crosses that point, using the forward swing to lead the target rather than stopping the gun on or after the target. This approach helps you anticipate the target’s path and place the shot where the target will be when the bullet arrives. For context, other methods involve less leading or different timing: point-and-shoot focuses on aiming quickly at the target at close range, snap-shot is a rapid, short-range shot with minimal aiming, and stop-and-go uses a brief pause in the swing before firing. Swing-through specifically emphasizes continuing the swing past the target and firing after the muzzle has passed, which is why it’s the correct choice here.
