26. Spin-
love the story. I shoot with a couple of buddies at a range here in Sarasota, and we've tried a similar thing. We didn't even start from the table, though- just with handgun lowered from shooting-stance height. While we aren't "marksmen" by any means, we can both put the rounds where we want them pretty reliably; but with just that little change we were happy to get both shots on the paper.

It's a slightly embarrassing thing to admit; but it does point out the difference between static range shooting anything even approaching a real life situation, and also the difference between competent but casual shooters like us and the folks who really work at it. A difference that is well worth keeping mind for all of us who carry.
