A number of years ago I used to shoot IHMSA, we shot at distances from 25 yards to 200 yards. This was without a scope. I used a DW 44 mag, Thompson Center and a Remington XP100. It seems that most people I read now don't ever get over 10 yards. Any particular reason for shooting at such close range?
My thought is, if you can hit and shoot well at 30 plus meters then 10 meters is a snap.
This is my thought. I frequently do the majority of my shooting between 15yds and 25 yds (35 if I have the room). It's a slight majority, but a majority none-the-less. I then come in to about 7 to 10 yards and practice speed from the holster, failure-to-stop drills, etc. As others have said, the fundamentals of being able to shoot a decent group at 25-35yds only aids in being able to rapidly hit center mass at 10 yards. I do not shoot handgun over 50 yards much at all as I don't hunt with handguns. My interest is actually piqued though, I may have to stretch out and try a few hundred yard shots.
FWIW, I don't question hitting 20" plates at 100 yards off hand (even at 200)... but golf balls at 100 off-hand? Yall are some shooters
Look at what Appleseed does with their rifle course at 25 yards. A postage size target at 25 yards simulates a 200 yard shot. So all of us can shoot at 100-200 yard distances on a 25 yard range. All in the size of your target
Ocraknife, look into Appleseed.

Did you shoot at Geneva fl
Downside is you can't use cheap practice ammo at that distance. It's gotta be $1.25/round stuff or hand loads you gave up an afternoon with the family to make.
-but with a good tall serrated front blade it can be done.
WHY????
Is your practice ammo THAT inaccurate??
