I shoot my 9mm 360 enough to keep proficient. No long, drawn out range sessions with it, I'll shoot about 5 cyls out of it each time I'm out shooting something else, which is about every 2-3 weeks. I know what I can do with it and it doesn't take 150rds a week to maintain it. IMO, shooting is shooting, the same principles of shooting my Beretta 8000D apply to shooting the 360, the fact that one weighs 30oz and one weighs 13oz doesn't mean anything except some more recoil and a big difference in carry comfort.
Here's my target from qualifications last month (plainclothes course) - 50 rds from 3 to 18yds, timed shooting from the draw, from the ready, standing, kneeling, behind barricades, double and triple taps, and failure drills (2 chest, 1 head). We have to shoot the course twice, back to back, it took about 35mins to go through both times. I shot 49/50 the first round and 50/50 the second. If you ask me, a gun is a gun is a gun, either you can shoot or you can't and if you can't you go out and practice until you can. I've been shooting my whole life and have qualified expert with every weapon I've had to qualify with since I joined the USAF in 1981 (inc. a Kel-tec .380 on our regular duty pistol course, 3-25yds).
You guys may remember my snubby, I've posted about it before. There was a lot of talk about poor accuracy shooting .355" bullets through a .357" barrel. Obviously, I haven't noticed any loss of accuracy. The shots on the outer edges of the main group of the target above are my fault, not the gun's. This was the last gun I qualified with that day (AFTER my patrol rifle, my duty pistol, and my other off duty pistol) - I had already fired 322 rounds before these last 50 and I was getting a bit fatigued.
