The Five Yard Problem
Of almost 70 student involved shootings, almost 90% occurred in the 3-5 yard distance envelope. If we make it 3-7 yards, that covers over 92% of the incidents. The FBI and DEA have found very similar results in their agent involved shootings. Five yards is about one car length, and is a very common engagement distance.
SWAT Magazine just published an excellent article on how to practice for engagements at this distance and how to measure and gauge your skill in this critical area. See https://www.swatmag.com/article/five...86&vsoid=A9486
