Mine said the same thing. I think I understand what the guy was trying to say, but he's not able to articulate it very well. Basically, if you save a bunch of targets with key hole grouping, the prosecution can hold them up in court and state something along the line that you practice all the time and couldn't wait to shoot someone. However, I don't think they could make the argument of "you should have shot them in the hand, leg, etc.", but they could try to use it to paint you as someone who couldn't wait for the opportunity to deploy their weapon.

They can do all kinds of crazy things when they want a convection and have neither the law or the facts on their side.
