That's Great cuz I disagree with you..

What skills is she honing that will help her in an actual defense scenario?

You are REALLY asking this question?? Seriously????? The lady is only developing the ONE basic skill that is required to survive a self defense situation: The ability to hit the Target!!! EVERY self defense thread I've read all boils down to one thing and it's NOT caliber or the amount of ammo the gun holds. It's Bullet Placement, Center Mass..... Period...

Being a better shooter on the context you presented will not necessarily make her more capable of defending herself effectively.

From what I read the lady wants a caliber she's comfortable with which will make her extremely capable.. So what context are you talking about??
