a matter of range experience rather than speculation.

That's true. But that is a tiny subset of shooters. There are hundreds, maybe over a thousand USPSA and IDPA matches held every month, year after year, and that's still a very small percentage of shooters who participate. How many PPC and BIANCHI cup type matches are held in a month or years time?
