At the suggestion of reader Timmeeee, who said “aim for the 9 where the tip of the nose is. Fire 10 shots in 10 seconds,” I put up a fresh silhouette target and gave it a try. I used my Glock 30 and fired 10 rounds of .45 ACP aiming at the numeral ‘9′ in the center of the face. I had a couple of outliers, but 8 out of 10 hit the head or neck. One shot not in the photo hit the right chest. All 10 would have discouraged an assailant.

Now that I know this drill, I’ll be trying to get my grouping ‘on the nose.’
