637, RE: Shooting as you point your fing

Funny story from basic training at Ft Bragg NC Sep or Oct 1968. Practice with the M14. Two of my targets were lined up so that a hit to the right shoulder knocked down the target and the one behind in the left shoulder. First time was by accident, but I took full advantage of it. NCOs couldn’t understand how I scored that high and still had ammunition left. I explained it, but they still reacted in disbelief. The score keeper backed me up and supposedly they “looked into it”. I couldn’t believe that after countless months and years it hadn’t been discovered until that day.
