That puts you at quite a disadvantage.I am NOT going to read 240 posts before responding...
Had you read the earlier posts, you would have seen that "that average of 2 shots" is not supportable, and that since it was described as the mean, the mode, and the median, the number is flawed.It therefore follows that once in that small group you may find yourself in the even smaller group that need more than that average 2 shots.
We certainly should realize that we "might" need more than two shots, if you want to put it that way., particularly if we realize that there is a sound basis for training to fire there to five shots immediately at the first target.The pitfall with this admission of vulnerability is that we then start thinking that we might need more than 2 shots.
Well, that has been discussed at extreme length in this thread.We might need 3, 4, 24, 40.... Where do we stop?
