In my youth I probably had over-fast reactions. Hunting pheasant over our pointing dogs my fist shot was low-base 7.5 or 8. Then if I missed, came the HB 6.

Once, a group of us (6) were walking across a field when the dogs put up a rooster. The first shot hit, as did the next 4. The "slow guy" said he knew he didn't need to shoot but the message to his trigger finger could not be recalled. Hit 6. The bird came down stone dead.
