I was re-thinking about this and my mind went back to a scene about a long range arrow shot.
The firer looked at the slowly receding target, looked at a flapping banner (to gauge wind direction & speed) and then fired the arrow. This took less than 5 seconds but it presumably took a bit longer than if he was firing at someone 3 yards away.
