What distance do you practice at?

[RedDuc]

Since the Sporting and hunting folks have their own poll going I was curious what distances you practice at and why.

1. <10m
2. 10-20m
3. 21-30m
4. 50m or more...
5. Mix it up regularly.

My local indoor range is set always at 20 m for which is limiting.
Outdoors I try to go as far as I can up to ~50m

#2, cuz that's what most confortable, anything under that just makes me feel cheap

Our range has fixed target distances for pistol at 7, 15, 25 and 50 meters (or longer if you care to)

So my usual practice distance is 15 and 25, which would require two votes in the poll, but I ticked 10 to 20 m.

Did I mention I failed Statistics in Uni.

I voted mix it up because I regularly do 20m rundowns right to contact range. I love being a member at a range that lets you do fire AND movement.

+1. The Olds range pistol bays are excellent and you can work from 25yds to contact. I do slow fire at 7-10yds usually, balloons at 25yds and Dot Drills at 3yds if I feel like it.

I voted 10 - 20 for the average of what I do....

NAA.

I have now voted in both polls!

club A)-I usually shoot at 17yrds all winter, it is our only option.

club B)-I joined to have the versatility to shoot shorter distances, but I have to be a member for another 2 months to get access to the building (get a key) other wise I have to go to "new members night" which only allows shots at 20yrds.

club A)-In summer months we shoot at the rifle range, so we have access to the full 254yrds (distance to the berm) I have shot steel silouhetes out to 100yrds, 3 out of 7 hits from a 1911 (personal best). I shoot at the 50yrd targets and steels but usually just a mag a week, I burn up way more ammo at 25yrds.

I just joined a 3rd club......... I guess I will have to see what that is like.....

Cheers!

We have a very infromal outdoor range locally and most of my handgun shooting is at the 20-25 yard mark. On many occasions, especially with some of the 'stuff' like 357 Mag, 44 Mag 45 LC and 500 S&W, I will extend out to the 100 and 200 yard distances.

I like the last option. This should be a required choice on each poll. I voted 10 to 20. I'm a crappy shot and could care less.

it made sense to me to give everyone a chance to respond how they REALLY feel.

what do the ipsc and ipda type practice drills go like.
