Here's why I wouldn't put a huge amount of concern or significance into getting a perfect score on the CHL proficiency test and why you won't hear or see me bragging, (anymore).
My euphoria on my last CHL profiency test quickly turned sour the moment I stepped on an IPDA range. I used to think I was a good shot, but I learned I have a lot of work ahead of me before I can use that term honestly.
There's a world of difference between a timed test at fairly close range and the pressure of drawing while standing, moving, or sitting, trying to shoot BG's without hitting good guys, keeping track of bullets fired, swapping out mags behind cover, shooting with your strong hand only, shooting with your weak hand only, shooting while carrying a "wounded person", (the scenarios are unlimited) - all while competing against the other shooters for the lowest time. Now that's what I call a good test of the type of shooting skills I consider to be very important.
Keep practicing and if you haven't tried IDPA, what are you waiting for? It's a lot of fun and very challenging.
