I think the NRA figured this out about 100 years ago with the timed and rapid fire stages of the traditional pistol match. It's easy to forget that the CMP had a primary function to raise the skills of shooters so that the skill would be there in a time of war.
5 rounds in 10 seconds at 25yds is a no shit test of skill with a pistola.
