It seems that I recall reading somewhere that in an actual situation your accuracy will drop by at least 50%. I can't recall what the standard is here in PA but it's not all that hard. Sadly I saw a long time Constable That couldn't make the standard anymore. The instructor was really sad to tell him to go home and practice some more and try again.
