This means that to get an instant kill they must be much closer, and more importantly that you can get a drubbing that lasts all day and still get away alive, which is what happened most of the time.
That seems a better assessment. 25 meters for the DC kill is a long distance, even for late war DC's although by late 43 and on, I believe a decent kill from a DC would be at roughly 15+ meters with a damage radius at somewhere's in the neighborhood of 30 meters +/-.
