Bill Drill

Six shots, one target, as fast as you can keep them in the A-zone.

What this proves: Your grip holds all six shots in the A-zone, not just the first two.

Scored by: Time, all six in the A-zone · Log it in Range Log

Setup

7 yards. USPSA-style target. 6 rounds. Gun in the holster, hands at your sides.

How to run it

  1. Hands at your sides, gun in the holster.
  2. On the beep, six shots to the A-zone.
  3. Log the time. One shot outside the A-zone and it isn’t a time.

The standard

Clean-run rule: Six in the A-zone or it isn’t a time. 7 yards, from the holster, hands at your sides.

From concealment, add 0.25 to each line. At other distances, log the time and the hits so you can watch them climb.
