I look for key phrases in most people’s written range report reviews:
“It’s a (insert miniscule numerical measurement here) MOA gun ALL DAY LONG”.
AND
They ALWAYS feel the need to add the exact same qualifier - “as long as I do my part”.
The small MOA number is always intended to shock or surprise the reader or viewer, usually given that’s is almost always in reference to a firearm that by our experiences or by history isn’t known to be quite that accurate.
Their qualifier is so that if any of us challenges that person to duplicate those results in person or with witnesses, well they were simply “off their game that day” or they “didn’t do their part”.
I tune out or off whenever the above statements are made during a written or video review. As soon as someone includes these sentences in the review, I know they’re lying or at a minimum, exaggerating.
