Most people I see at the range only practice the simple isosceles stance with both hands from 5-10 yards. I typically use the one handed method dueling stance, the fast draw crouching with my hand over the heart, the weaver stance every now and then, and recently I have picked up a few shooting stance that Chic Gaylord recommended in his book. The around corner stance (can't remember what exactly it is called but you peer around the corner and pin your gunless hand palm against the corner and rest the wrist with your gun in hand on your thumb to support your shot), Rock the Baby and the Border Patrol stance. The latter two I have found very interesting (and they seem to work quite well too). RtB seems to work well when you are picking off a careful shot in SA. Border Patrol seems like a good tactical stance and works well for DA and SA. You are kneeling down (low to the ground, and reducing yourself as a target) and are using your knee and the palm of your left hand as your gun stand to support your shot. You are essentially making your whole body a gun tripod of a sort. I try all of these methods at 20-25 yards away at least (would do 50 if I could but the indoor range I go to isn't that far) about 75% of the time
