of time, why CAN'T you rest the gun on something, and have a more-certain hit, hmm? Only in the rarest sort of terrain will such a shot ever be feasible. So, the offhand shot with the rifle is for a 10" circle at 100m, with a time frame of 2 seconds or less, from a low ready start.
With the pistol, in a hunting scenario, it's 10" at 50 m, low ready start, same time frame, or you could have dropped to prone, sitting, etc, and fired from a steadier position. Fighting, from the leather, it's 10m, 1.5 seconds. Otherwise you should be moving, with all due speed, to either reach cover or overwhelm the guy. Either way, you aint hitting better than a 10" circle at 10m.
So much for standing there, slowfire practicing better accuracy. Neither game nor men are going to require a standing position, and give you 10 seconds in which to fire. If you have even 5 seconds, you can be in prone or sitting,or using your walking stick or a handy tree, etc, as a rifle or pistol brace so why practice slowfire standing? Waste of range time.
