Shotgun shack.(or Shotgun House)
Accuracy by volume, usually refers to machine guns, but has been adopted by the digital photography crowd, basically, you shoot 100 pictures and keep the best 2 or 3.
Shoot the moon!

Interesting. I was always of the impression that "the whole nine yards" referred to civil war era sailing ships.
I don't believe "rifle thru something" is correct. I believe "rifle" is a corruption of "riffle", as riffles used in gold panning.
Does "Hoist on his own petard" fit in???
Possibly but there are lots of perversions we've carefully avoided.
I got 45 good reasons why my daughter will come home in the same condition she left. Several gentlemen introduced themselves w/ it a pleasure to meet Mr Hart ,I know all about the 45 and the shovel......... Its only funny because I actually had 357 good reasons not 1 45 in the whole stable.

I had a Doctor explain to me that my vomiting blood was much better for him than using "the shotgun approach to medicine". That being where they try everything to find a solution.

"The whole nine yards" refers to the length of the cloth ammo belts used in the British Vickers machine gun during WWI. The term was used by the gunners to describe the amount of ammo expended to stop a mass attack. The history channel's series on WWI even made note of this.
The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!
In the Army, it was real common for NCOs to tell a sub standard Soldier whose performance needed to shape up that they needed to "tighten up their shot group", which of course came from BRM ranges where a troop hadn't effected a good zero on his weapon before qualification. I still use it a lot regarding any person or operation that needs to get it together.

Updated since the other day. Lots of good ones on the list. I'll update periodically.
What about "You're slower than wet gunpowder"? So many ways to take that, but I think the reference is to someone who's a bit slow on the draw.

I actually got and email that read ''test'' for the thread but upon viewing neither the ''4'' nor last button work
