    Accuracy is another factor related to a player's APM. Accuracy is the coordination of precise mouse clicks and keystrokes. Greater accuracy will result in fewer mis-clicks and mis-strokes; thus the player's efficiency increases with greater accuracy, meaning the APM is a more accurate measurement statistic.

  3. Strafing (video games) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strafing_(video_games)

    Strafing in video games is a maneuver which involves moving a controlled character or entity sideways relative to the direction it is facing. This may be done for a variety of reasons, depending on the type of game; for example, in a first-person shooter, strafing would allow one to continue tracking and firing at an opponent while moving in another direction.

  4. Hitscan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitscan

    Shooting the weapon calls the hitscan function, and if an object is detected in the projectile's path, a hit is registered. Since the effect is immediate, the projectiles effectively travel at infinite speed and have a linear or otherwise simple trajectory—a practical approximation of a bullet's speed and accuracy over short distances.

  5. Accurizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accurizing

    Accurizing is the process of improving the accuracy and precision of a gun (firearm or airgun). [1] For shooting sport, accuracy is the gun's ability to hit exactly what the shooter is aiming at, and precision is the ability to hit the same place over and over again in a

  6. Precision-guided firearm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision-guided_firearm

    To qualify as a precision guided firearm, the system must: Be a complete firing system – rifle, ammunition and networked tracking scope; Persistently track the target, automatically compute a multi-variable firing solution, and ensure precise engagement when target and firing solution are optimally aligned

  7. Point shooting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_shooting

    Side view of handgun point shooting position. Point shooting (also known as target-[1] or threat-focused shooting, [2] intuitive shooting, instinctive shooting, subconscious tactical shooting, or hipfiring) is a practical shooting method where the shooter points a ranged weapon (typically a repeating firearm) at a target without relying on the use of sights to aim.

  8. Physics of firearms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_firearms

    According to Newtonian mechanics, if the gun and shooter are at rest initially, the force on the bullet will be equal to that on the gun-shooter. This is due to Newton's third law of motion (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction). Consider a system where the gun and shooter have a combined mass m g and the bullet has a mass m b.

  9. Power factor (shooting sports) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor_(shooting_sports)

    The minimum power factor rule is designed to mitigate the speed and accuracy advantages of smaller calibers. Less-powerful cartridges have less recoil, and therefore can be fired more quickly with the same accuracy. Setting a minimum power factor value requires recoil management skills by all competitors.
