    Not very real world imho.

    ...and you never go out to a square range and punch holes in paper?

    Steel Challenge is a great place to get a feel for trigger reset and target transition.

    USPSA, IDPA, 3-gun... and even paper targets on a square range... all have something to teach you.

    ...certainly more so that sitting around the house because the match that weekend isn’t “real world” enough.

    ...again...true...but with ammo being as scarce as it is and also having other responsibilities and time dedicated to other things in life, you gotta kinda pick your poison.

    I also mentioned fun as being a very important part of the equation. For me, zero movement = not so fun. For you, maybe not...and that's fine too. No judgement here.

    Look up "Spartan 300" in Sparta Illinois. 300 pts total, 10 stages of 26 targets each. It was super fun and has lots of different stages, some with stupid tight par times. Lot of running around. A match worth waiting around for.
