If you're concerned about missing, at CQ, the remedy for that is to close, first shot is across the room, takes you less than a second to be standing right over him with the second shot, walk and shoot.

From one side of the room to the other? I'm not gonna miss from there.

I don’t think I would either.
But it might be nice to have for the girls. They don’t have my range time.

Like I say, aggression is the key, shoot n' move, lean into it, go right at em', finish em' off, don't give em' a chance to get their bearings.

Big kick on a Judge tho, so they're probably gonna go way high, more likely to score a hit with .38 spec, that's the chick load.

You're not actually going to get much of a spread with .410-00 at close range, it's like an inch and a half maybe, so if you're gonna miss center of mass with a .38, you're gonna miss with the Judge too, particularly as it kicks like a rented mule.

Look at that Hickock video, though.

At that range, seven yards, against a man sized target, it's not going to make much of a difference, if you're gonna miss center of mass from there with a bullet, you must have missed by way more than a softballs diameter, for a chick, I'd say just go with a compact 9 milly, semi-jack HP, and just keep shooting him until he drops, change mags.

He was like two yards and the spread was still wide as fuck.

If you're gonna miss at 2 yards with a bullet, you must have missed by so much, that you would have missed with the spread as well, and if you just winged him, with a couple pellets? Bad juju, he's not down, he's returning fire, a couple pellets ain't gonna drop a man on the spot, if you don't get the full spread center of mass, you missed for all intents and purposes, at which point, he just turns and shoots you in the head, one shot one kill, it's point blank. For a chick, I wouldn't go with big kick, I would go with more rounds, 9 milly, hi cap mag, empty it into him at point blank.

I am talking about the spread, not missing.

If you can't hit somebody with a bullet at two yards, you must be an invalid, my wife ain't no shooter, but even she could pull a head shot off from there.
