I will agree with you, but only up to a point. Shooting that snubby from the bench is most likely the best way to find his best load. Once that is done, then I will agree that shooting both one and two handed while standing, sitting and any other position you might end up in during a gunfight should be the way to practice.
If you like a challenge, set up a man silhouette target up at one hundred yards and see just what you can do. I'll give you a hint. Aim for the head and drop then into the torso. With a little practice, you'll find it is pretty easy to do. On a shot like that, it is OK to rest against a pole of other object to help steady your aim. You'd be quite surprised at just how accurate a snubbie can be.
