Allow me to preface with the fact that I know that some people actually shoot at 25 yards and do quite well.
However, I see in thread after thread where the guy with the new handgun shoots a 2" inch group at 25 yards. I don't know about the majority here, but at 25 yards, my front post is about the same size as the entire silhouette target. In fact, my (I'm a member there) state-of-the-art range goes to 45' in the pistol bay and 75' in the rifle. So 25 yards? Really? Or does one really mean 25 FEET?
Personally, unless I'm playing some sort of game with myself, I'm shooting at 21'.
Again, talking about unscoped handguns. And I acknowledge that a percentage of great shooters can group offhand at 25 yards. What say you THR? Do we call shenanigans?
Ive never read people bragging on forums shooting inches at 25 yards. Im a relatively novice shooter (probably under 2000 rounds total handgun) and I can shoot a pie plate at 25 yards indoors with no problem.
The entire target is covered, but you can still get consistency.
I have a suppressor on one gun and so the sights are too short to see any target, it doesnt matter as your brain can still figure it out and get on target.
