Over shooting in airsoft is a term used to describe the act of shooting at other players you can't quite hit. It's a common mistake made by inexperienced players who don't understand the limitations of their weapons and ammo. When over shooting, players fire too many rounds at one target that isn't in their weapon's range, wasting ammo and giving away their position. Furthermore, it also reduces ammo capacity in the field, as the player expends many BBs which miss their intended target. To avoid over shooting, it is important to know your gun's range limits, take your time, and aim carefully. Remember that airsoft guns have a limited range of about 300 feet on average, so it's important to get close enough for accurate shots. Additionally, if you are using a semi-automatic or full-auto gun, be sure to fire in short bursts instead of squeezing the trigger to shoot an entire magazine worth of BBs. By understanding these principles, you can become a more effective airsoft player and avoid wasting ammo and giving away your position.
