I vary from 3 yds to 20 yds, mostly 7 to 10 yds. I carry for defense and figure that would be the range (hopefully) that I need to make center mass & head shots. This is indoors, outdoors and when I was still pistol hunting in NH, 50 yds with a Super Blackhawk using 300 gr XTP handloads  . Most deer hunting there is scrub hunting so no real long range work where I hunted.

A bit of target grouping in the 7-10yd range, along with lots of knock-down target plinking at 15-25yds. I shoot a variety of calibers, but mostly 9mm.

+1 there. Very similar training myself.

3-20 yards, SD
10-40 yards starting one month before
hunting season. This gets expensive.
Bullets are like trucks the bigger they are the more they cost.

O.O
2-4 Yards...?
Heck! I can whi... on 'em at that range.
I practice at 25 yards. If I can hit the target at 25 yards and hold a decent group, hitting a target at 2-4 yards will be no problem...
As far as shooting silhouettes, I use the inverted T method of shooting, 2 rounds center of body and 1 round to the head. For the exact same reason the FBI shot this way. The round to the head is meant to incapacite.

If it's fight shooting you're asking about, be good at 2 and 4 meters.......laugh at that and you'll be dead in your first PD encounter.
