No competent instructor will tell you to use more shots than you need. And I have the best.
You shoot ONLY until the immediate threat is neutralized. While you are throwing extra lead you hurt your self 3 ways.:
You deplete your ammo. You never know if there is an unseen threat.
While you are shooting you can not scan the area. As soon as the threat is eliminated you want to take a step or two to force another shooter to reacquire his target (you). And you immediately use just your eyes to look around
As Grumpy said..every round you put out there is owned by you.
Nothing wrong with a Revolver. I do not use one though. I only carry 5+1 in my .380 and am very comfortable with it. Not even mildly concerned its not enough.
