Okay, I can double tap my 9mm auto till the cows come home, keep the point of aim at the center of mass, and even follow up with a head shot. Last weekend I rented a 357 mag revolver, Taurus Tracker 627 4", and put a 100 rounds through it. I was shooting 158 grain lead nose Magtec flap tops and CCI 125 grain hollow points.
Let me tell you, it was not easy. I felt like I was trying to aim an angry bull rather than a revolver. Aiming single shots was fine, but trying to quickly follow up with a second was near impossible for me. My hand was aching by the last round.
So, for self defense with magnum calibers, how do you practice? Is it just practice, practice, practice until you are able to control it, or do you guys even attempt double taps?
