I chose the value of 17 not only because it coincides with the one assigned in the "Spec Ops" book for the Delta Force, but also because it is the level at which professional competence is acquired to perform the following combination without resorting to Accuracy: "Effective Skill = 17 + Target Attack (Gun/Skull)-3 + Quick-Shot (Gun)+0 + Speed/Range (5 yards)-2 = 12".
