It is hard to say what one would do and what shot he may take until they are in that situation. If one takes a Response to Active Shooter Class (I have been in two by different instructors) you will have to do long distance shooting. One class (KR Training) had us shooting at an 18 X 24 inch steel plate. We started at 25 yards and worked our way back to 70 yards and got hits all the way. The other class (CSAT) had us shooting at a smaller target (6X13 inch steel plate) at 65 yards (length of the long hall in the shoot house). I did not hit that one every time but the misses were just off the edge.

If you can't hit a silhouette target at 50 yards, some practice is in order. I realize that no one was shooting back but it is doubtful that the active shooter would know you are shooting at them unless you hit them. We learned (in the class with KR Training) that there was an off duty LEO in the shooting in gay bar in Florida and the LEO emptied two magazines trying to hit the active shooter with no success. The active shooter never knew that anyone was shooting at him.

I know, easy to say as I have not been shot at but if you don't prepare, you surely won't be able to take action to stop an active shooter.

You can launch your grenades now.
