Pistols are close quarter weapons and have been since 1300, so why is it important to shoot accurately with them past 15 yards? I guess it might be entertaining, but anything over that distance should be done with a rifle.
Sometimes rifles fail, or can’t have one (bow season)
We had a hog about to charge. I tried 3 rifle shots and all failed to fire (bad Ammo)
I’m just glad when I yelled at my wife to Climb a tree it scared the rest and broke its charge.
A friend was out in bow season field dressing a deer. He’d seen hog and pulled his pistol same time he started talking trying to get it to leave. But it wanted his deer.
Hog started charging from 40yds out.
He Hit it with first shot at 35yrds. 4 rapid hits later it dropped at just under 20 yards from him.
If he had only practiced at 20yds and waited until it was in that distance he might not be here today.
Of course distance a person practices at depends on Their situation/environment.
