Depends obn what you will use it for.
A hunting handgun I would test at 50. (75 if scoped)
A defensive weapon, 10 is adequate, IMHO.
Tested for accuracy? Obviously inaccuracy is easier to detect at longer range.Just wanted to see what distance most folks here prefer to have handguns tested for accuracy.
I'm behind this 100%. Take a Governor or Judge, for instance, if you are using .410 for snakes, 5 yards
will suffice. Or snubbies, they're a "get off me" gun, 7 yards will do.
Now, you take a bull-barreled 22LR, it better be making tight groups at 25, or even 50 yards.

Where to zero? For hunting 50 yards maybe farther. For self defense 7 to 50 really makes no difference.
