"Same grip, same way, every time...=...consistency, one of the tenants of accuracy. Changing your grip can move your groups 2-3" 15 yds...or open them up by the same amount. Good comments regarding the support hand grip by a previous poster as well.
Good/great bullseye shooters of my past did not pick up the piece with the strong hand. Instead, they used the non-shooting hand to place the gun in the shooting hand precisely. For a combat shooter, this is ridiculous, but serves to underscore the importance of a consistent grip on the gun if you expect to shoot well...
The defensive shooting courses I've attended all stressed establishing a shooting grip on the gun, while still in the holster, before beginning the presentation stroke...consistently...but then I've already said that!
