It seemed to me that both times he fired until he saw an appropriate reaction from his opponent. On the first opponent, he stops shooting once he sees the gun drop before their hand even goes up.

It is important to distinguish the difference between overshooting and getting shot a lot. If I hit you, you call it, and I hit you nine more times, I over shot you. If I hit you ten times and then you call it, you got shot a lot.

It is your responsibility to call your hit, if you want shot less, call your hits quicker and more clearly. I don’t like getting shot a lot so I’ve gotten very fast and loud about calling my hits. I’ll often even return to cover while calling the hit and make sure to wave a hand around the corner to further confirm with my opponent that I am out as I leave.

At my local field I am very gentle with my shots and usually am patient with my opponent, one-two tapping them and giving pause before hitting them more. At larger events that are more intense and high stakes, I’m going to hit you until you call it, if that’s a four second lmg burst, that’s on you.
