If you're awakened at 3am, and stumbling about, you're probably at home, which means you're most likely to be shooting at a range of 15 feet or less. If you can't hit center mass at that range, you're better off with a shotgun for home defense. Or - practice combat shooting. It isn't really hard to improvise.

If you only have access to a range, practice 3 round bursts, 2 to the chest, 1 to the head. Shoot one handed with each hand. Shoot leaning around the range wall, using it for "cover." Start your target at 25 yards, and have a buddy work the pulley for you, advancing the target for 3 seconds then pausing, and advancing again.

If you have access to somewhere outside (like in the middle of the desert) - fill up 2liter bottles with water, put them at various heights over a distance, walk your course and a brisk pace, moving and shooting. It's a lot different than a perfect stance at a range.

Yeah - I know I'm just a girl - but I can shoot a 240/300 at 25 yards. 30 rounds in 30 seconds. ;)
