If your draw stroke is true, then the dot will be where it needs to be. No need to hunt for it.

True, but just as a wild guess I'd say the average shooter when point shooting (no laser) closer than 7 yards will have the gun pointed within, say, 14 inches of the center of the target as they pull the trigger. This will make for some poor shots. (Of course some people that practice point shooting a lot get very accurate and fast, close up)
If the gun is equipped with a laser and the shooter knows how to use it, the shooter will pull the gun to center as he is pulling the trigger, without actually looking at the laser dot.
As I said, I do a lot of close up (under about 8 yards) fast multiple shot point shooting, using the laser.
What really takes place is as each shot is fired the laser dot seems to be flying all over COM and beyond. It appears to never stop moving until I have stopped firing.
But I seldom miss COM. So what is happening is as I'm pulling the trigger I am (naturally) pulling the dot toward the center of the target, where my vision is focused.
Out beyond about ten yards the shooting is slower as the shooter tries to hold the laser dot centered.
Personally I sight my handgun lasers in at 25 yards. This way the bullet strike will be within an inch or two of center from arm's length to beyond 40 yards. My back yard is 50+ yards.
By the time I shot the 40 yard target it was so dark the target was just a gray blur, but still COM hits were easy with the Crimson Trace laser.
The gun is the Kimber Tactical Ultra.
