    Whatever distance the IDPA stage is at, or 10yds off hand when testing a new load. I can't hit whatever I'm shooting no matter the distance if I'm shooting around HBAR for some reason.

    So my 7-10 yard is where I should be for practicing. I heard most gunfights happen between that range, I am not a total noob lol. Was 12 year medic with the Army, two deployments just never really used my good ol M9, for some strange reason felt better with the M4 ��

    The standard description used to describe self defense gun fights is 3 rounds at 3 yards in 3 seconds from the ready position. Obviously, no one knows where you will be and what the circumstances would be if, God forbid you find yourself actually using your firearm.

    When the weather is nice, and you have someone to act as a safety, it can be fun to try some unusual shooting positions. Left side, right side from the ground. From your back, feet toward the target, but make sure your feet are spread and toes out

    I'll start as low as 5yds on occasion and rarely go past 13yds. 8-11 is sort of where I like to stick.
    Obviously not a golfer.

    I've only ever seen him shoot in the air yelling ARRRRIBA! He is pretty good at clearing the sombrero before he touches off the shot. Helps to ensure the bullet doesn't come straight back down on us.

    Rifle I like a 200 yard zero with ARs and 30 caliber rifles.
