Robinkevin,
It's hard to miss a stationary target, under low stress conditions at close range. Its considerably easier to miss when your system is all jacked up, your target is moving and your spot on this mortal coil is on the line!
Again, not so hard to prove. First time you shot a deer, I betcha you had a harder time with that shot than you did on the range. It's all that adrenaline dumping into your system. Experience and practice smooth that out, but most folks haven't the experience when it comes to self defense, so you have practice a lot.
The instinct is that you will revert to training. Shooting a buck or a duck simply does not prepare a person for shooting at another person. Fear, the inherent resistance to killing a human that most sane people have, adrenaline, training unsuitable to CQB, all can add up to disaster regardless of the firearm being used.
