Could mean "too far for powder burns, close enough that he couldn't miss."

I know. What does that mean? Was Trayvon backing up? Z says he shot him from a position lying on his back with Trayvon straddling him? This piece does not fit.

Did they define intermediate? Weren’t there powder burns on Martin’s hoodie? Doesn’t that indicate close range?
