Breath exhaled ....
Hello
The first rule of the sniper was that any unintended movement of gun and shooter would spoil the shot. Steady hand, breath exhaled, heartbeat in the sixties and weapon locked in position against a stable surface-that's how one killed successfully.
Does "breath exhaled" mean that one should exhale slowly, or just before the shot one should start exhaling?
I think "heartbeat in the sixties" mean that heart shouldn't beat faster than sixty beats a minute?

Exhale, then take the shot before breathing in again. In the 60s means lower than 70. It could be 62 beats per minute, or 69.

Respected Grammar Geek,
Normal heart rate per minute must be 72. Above 72 beats is called tachycardia. Below 72 is called bradycardia.

hello,
I was refering to the medical condition of the shooter.
By the by, in sixties does mean: it must be in between 60 and 69.
