New targeting systems, hardware and techniques are provided. In a preferred embodiment, a system enables a sniper to, in effect, take a projected, trial shot at a subject within an environment, evaluate its effectiveness, and execute it if satisfied. A user may create, set, adjust and execute Impact Point indicators, corresponding with projected points of impact of a projectile on a target subject within a target environment. The system may counteract and otherwise adjust for certain ballistic and environmental factors in a firing mechanism to maintain such an Impact Point fire ready, in real time. Yet the system allows the user to continue to move the sight to engage in further targeting activity. In other aspects, the system may execute multiple impact points, together or in rapid succession, which impact points may surround, lead, cover or otherwise diversify their distribution about a targeting subject and/or its projected path.

1. A system comprising hardware: configured for a user to place an impact point indicator within a sight or display indicating an executable point of impact of a projectile on a target;configured to fire said projectile within a target-surrounding environment;configured to display said impact point
1. A system comprising hardware: configured for a user to place an impact point indicator within a sight or display indicating an executable point of impact of a projectile on a target;configured to fire said projectile within a target-surrounding environment;configured to display said impact point indicator to the user within a context of said surrounding environment, or an at least partial representation of said surrounding environment;configured to allow the user to cancel or alter the location of said impact point indicator within said context of said surrounding environment or said representation of said surrounding environment; andconfigured to counteract, in real time, the influence of sight movement, firing mechanism movement, barrel movement, display movement or system part movement, to maintain the location of the impact point indicator within said surrounding environment or said representation of said surrounding environment and to maintain a potential projectile flight path corresponding with said executable point of impact of a projectile on a target indicated by the impact point indicator. 2. The system of claim 1, in which said sight or display comprises a collimator sight including an electrically- or light-actuated display capable of presenting said impact point indicator. 3. The system of claim 1, in which said impact point indicator comprises a central point or dot. 4. The system of claim 1, in which said impact point indicator comprises an indicator surrounding or near an indicated point of impact, but which does not block the user's view of the point of impact. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the system is configured to create more than one impact point indicator, and to set a highest priority impact point Indicator corresponding with a point of impact of a projectile on a target to be first fired upon by the system in the event of a firing command; wherein the system is configured to counteract, in real time, the influence of sight movement or display movement to maintain the placed location of all impact point indicators within said surrounding environment or said representation of said surrounding environment; andwherein the system is configured to counteract, in real time, the influence of firing mechanism movement, barrel movement or system part movement in order to maintain a potential projectile flight path corresponding with an impact point indicated by the highest priority impact point indicator. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the system is configured to enable the user to place an impact point indicator by a gesture including depressing a button or partially pulling a trigger. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the system is configured to enable the user to execute an impact point indicator by a gesture. 8. The system of claim 1, in which the system further addresses, counteracts or intercepts the influence or projected influence of additional ballistics- or powered-flight- or target location-impacting factors to maintain a projectile flight path corresponding with the point of impact of a projectile on a target indicated by the impact point indicator. 9. The system of claim 1, in which the system is configured to enable a user to cancel and place another impact point indicator within said sight or display corresponding with a point of impact of a projectile on a target. 10. The system of claim 1, in which the system is configured to enable a user to adjust the position of said impact point indicator within said sight or display indicating a point of impact of a projectile on a target. 11. A system comprising hardware that is configured to, or that is configured to enable a user to: a. create at least one impact point indicator within a sight or display,b. set the location of said at least one impact point indicator within said sight or display to correspond with a point of impact of a projectile which the system is configured to fire on a target within a target-surrounding environment;c. cancel or adjust said set location of said at least one impact point indicator to correspond with a new or additional point(s) of impact of a projectile on a target; andd. execute a firing command resulting in firing a projectile on or near said point of impact of a projectile or said new or additional point(s) of impact of a projectile on a target;wherein the system addresses or counteracts the movement of said sight or display relative to a target and user- or target-surrounding environment to maintain a user's viewing perspective of a target or impact point indicator or target-surrounding environment; andwherein the system further addresses or counteracts movement of a firing mechanism or barrel, or addresses or counteracts changed ballistics- or powered-flight- or location-impacting factors to maintain a point of impact for a projectile fired from said firing mechanism or barrel to correspond with the location of said at least one impact point indicator's indicated location. 12. The system of claim 11, in which said impact point indicator comprises a central point or dot. 13. The system of claim 11, in which said impact point indicator comprises an indicator surrounding or near an indicated point of impact, but which does not block the user's view of the point of impact. 14. The system of claim 11, wherein the system is configured to enable the user to create an impact point indicator by a gesture, wherein said gesture comprises depressing a button or partially pulling a trigger. 15. The system of claim 11, wherein the system is configured to enable the user to set an impact point indicator by a gesture. 16. The system of claim 11, wherein the system is configured to enable the user to execute a firing command related to an impact point indicator by a gesture.
