It has always been my understanding that handgun ranges should be 25 yards which is why I always assumed that 25 yards was the range you should shoot at to determine competency. After watching top shot most of the handgun ranges were 50 feet (approx 16 yards).
So what do you feel is the range people should shoot at to see if they are competent with a handgun? If I had to guess I would say if you can post a small group at 15 yards then you are probably a good shot. But some part of me feels like that it just lowering the bar. So what is the modern standard handgun shooting distance?
Any thoughts?
