Hi,

The 10-10-10 drill is just about my favorite. I ran it cold just a couple days ago. I like to run it cold, no warm up, the first string of the session, just to see how I might do in an emergency situation. When using a B-8 target, use it to keep track of your scores. Add a second to your time for every hit outside the black. Shoot for a score of 90 or better. I don't get to practice it much because the range is usually too busy to use a timer. But I run it every chance I get.

So no one has to go looking all over the interwebs for the Dot Torture Drill, here's the page. Have fun!

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Hi,

While I'm at it, here's what I used for a B-8 center replacement. There's a plain one and my special, with a yellow dot in the 10-ring. It's easier for these old eyes to see.

Thank you for your indulgence,

What’s outside the black mean?

Hi,

What’s outside the black mean?

Sorry, I can't tell if you're serious. On the B-8 target, the 9 ring and 10 ring are black. The 8 ring and farther out are not. That scoring system is according to Larry Vickers.

Shooting doubles will tell you more than a Mantis ever will.
