The best pistol shooters in the world don’t use practiscore. That’s for the guys that shoot huge targets for time

This thread claimed only M class shooters in the action pistol games are good shooters.

Most of them are very fast shooters but not particularly good shots.

I know how just fine.  In fact I could likely take your toy and get as good as you pretty quickly.  

The other way around?  I doubt it.  The recoil and muzzle blast might scare you, you’d actually have to run and think up a stage plan, etc.

Can’t, and don’t want to(with a handgun).

I’m not interested in a one-faceted skill set.

As mentioned, that’s what a rifle is for.  Practical application of my skills is better served by just about anything vs. pistol bullseye shooting.

A USPSA head box A zone is 2x4”, and the head box is total size is 6x6”.  Is that huge?

Now try shooting that at speed through a port kneeling or squatting and it’s 20 yards away.

There’s a ton to action pistol shooting, much more than stand and shoot.  You can keep your boring bullseye shooting.  It’s gay.

Try it seated in a drivers seat with the threat at the 7oclock and approaching fast. You have no time to move the vehicle, roll windows down or put in earpro or eye pro. There's a ton to real situations. You can keep your dynamic shooting. It's gay.

I get acceptable hits, on the move, as fast as possible, all while handling an actual firearm...

I dont care about shooting tiny groups with a handgun, even moreso an airgun. They have a far superior tool for making those slow precision shots... its called a rifle. When I want to shoot slow and precise, I go prone out with one... and even then, I hardly waste time shooting groups.

I carry a centerfire pistol too. I don’t shoot centerfire bullseye now but I can still hit with one. You just told us you need a rifle to shoot accurately, kind of embarrassing for you.

My shooting consists of bumpfiring at dirt clods/garbage piles twice a year, so I’d assume nearly everyone is a better shot than me.
