Hi,
Most gun fights are within six feet. This is "yank and crank" range. However . . .
I prefer my self defense handguns to be dead on at 10 yards, for this is a longer distance that might be needed at a convenience store, restaurant attack, etc.
Plus, you HAVE to also know where to aim to do the same at 25 yds.
WHO SAID YA CAN'T SHOOT TIGHT GROUPS WITH A SNUBBIE?!!! . . .
Here's my tiny little Model 36 5-shot .38 snub, shot from the standing and unsupported stance. Why a snubbie? Because THAT'S the gun you 'll probably have on you when the SHTF:
At ten yards, into a 1" black square target . . .
At twenty five yards, into a 2 1/2" black square target . . .
BTW, at 25 yards, I was aiming at the UPPER target, and the bullet dropped into the lower one, just as I planned.
Ya gotta know your bullet drop!!!
