What is best in SD situations, what should I train on? I am already accurate with both.
Train to shoot until the threat is stopped.
I carry a J-frame and a speedloader. So for me it's 'tea party rules'- everyone gets one until all are served, then we worry about seconds.
Step 1: Draw.
Step 2 (if necessary): Double-tap.
Step 3: Re-assess the situation.
Step 4: Repeat steps 2-3 as necessary.
B yond, Step 3 can get you killed. It got Mark Wilson killed at the Tyler Texas Courthouse shooting. He was too good a shot, so after nailing the BG squarely COM, he stopped to assess the target. This gave the BG enough time to shoot Wilson 4 times and kill him.
Newer SD training teaches you to keep shooting until the target/BG is no longer in your sites and down for the count.

Fish, a retired Valley schoolteacher and father of seven, was accused of the May 11, 2004, shooting death of Kuenzli at a trailhead near Pine. The two men met in the late afternoon. Fish claimed that Kuenzli and two dogs in his care rushed at him.
Although he fired a warning shot at the dogs, he shot Kuenzli three times in the chest at close range. Fish, unharmed in the incident, maintained he fired in self-defense.
The Fish trial ended in conviction in mid-June.
First off, you don't know that.How is a man who would still be in jail even if he only fired one shot relevant to this debate?
