    voodoo_man, hey one thing I thought of for you, is GSSF. That might be a good competition - it's pure shooting totally devoid of tactics or much of any tactical context. It's for Glocks, which you shoot. You can probably start out in the Amateur Divisions and potentially win up to four guns in one match. Especially if you shoot like in the OP.

Is something we normally get to then I asked them how often they practice this skillset - nearly zero. Make a list, make a standard for that skillset, keep changing it as your personal requirements change and as you evolve as a shooter/fighter/dangerous human being.
    Goal set much?
    Seriously though, actually doing this is phenomenal.

    If you like free guns, I recommend this.
    I won a gun via performance award, a few hundred bucks for performance award, and a two year membership as a random award, all by my second match.
    In my experience, it's a very different setting/execution than a "normal" USPSA/IDPA/3-Gun match, but not so much that I wouldn't endure it for the awards.

    Yesterday's target. The first time I shot a 10 round group with gloves on. Don't remember the brand of gloves but I got them from Botach, leather outer with some sort of aramid anti-cut liner. They made the windy 23 degree weather bearable enough to hang on to a 1911. The material on the end of my trigger finger was rubbing on my support hand but the effect didn't appear to be detrimental. However overall sensitivity on the trigger was diminished somewhat. I just concentrated on keeping the sights aligned. 25 yards.

    Nice shooting. Gotta love those semi-wadcutters

    veryone wants to be a GM, but what is having a GM title going to do for you in a real world deadly force confrontation?
    Absolutely nothing. I am no better off as a USPSA GM than I was as a Marksman PPC shooter when I started back in 1977. Is that the answer you wanted to hear?
