Not buying the 20 yard story, draw and shoot getting off five rounds with a 454. LOL, Not buying it. Now I would buy he was in his truck and spotted the bear and shot him out the window.
I have no reason to doubt him. He could shoot bears wantonly all day long on the kenai penninsula if that’s what he really wanted to do.
Be careful when plagerizing from unknown sources on the internet!
To cover 109 yards from a stop in 6 seconds while only reaching 25 mph top speed is impossible. Besides, it conflicts with the previous sentence from your source.
In my first scenario, a report of a man with a gun at a building, on the 2nd floor. I was climbing the stairs on the outside of the building, and following the R.O.E. of the Arizona Rangers (holstered firearm, only draw in the face of an eminent threat), the door at the top of the stairwell opened and a man with a shotgun emerged. The computer timed my response to the eminent threat at .976 seconds to draw, point and fire two rounds at the threat. One killing shot, one miss.
If a person PRACTICES PRACTICES PRACTICES, and becomes proficient with their weapon(s), then such reaction times are entirely probable.
I have since left law enforcement entirely and I'll admit that I don't practice as often as I should, or would like to. During my years in law enforcement and armed security work, I practiced with an unloaded weapon EVERYDAY for about 30 minutes and went to the range 3 or 4 times a month for live fire exercises.
Given the unsettled times we currently live in, it would probably be appropriate to start doing that again.
