Missing a Lot......At 15 feet.

A long time poster, John Davis, has again graced us with his superior knowledge. "Differ" points out most people miss a man size target at five yards with any type of handgun. The picture is of a 3/4 size silhouette at five yards. The second is at 15 yards. The bullet holes are from a Ruger LCP .380 at fifteen yards. Obviously with one miss and a peripheral hit, it's streching the range at which I can hit with this gun but I'll shoot the same two distances with my new Ruger SR -22 and then my CZ P-01 later today.

As much as I hate to admit that Gunkid is correct, in the last month I have shoot both the Wyoming & Montana State championships of Cowboy Action and when your trying to put the speed on, people do miss at that short range.
