Good 50 round drill

[lppd4]

Our officers get a departmental range day every month and get 50 rounds to shoot what is a good 50 round drill? Looking for something I can put out to the guys without reinventing the wheel.

Dot drill

Might be more than 50, but if you research it you could modify it easily and really get some practice in that was meaningful.

Look up "quick skill test" here.

It is 50 rds

I run it each month for benchmarks.

and another one at 15 metters

2 shots

pistol is CZ 75 SP01 shadow I have a coach that is olimpic shooter- therefore a stance, thumb and and an eye picture from olimpic sport

I like the one box practice vid, seems like a few times a week with that drill and you would build muscle memory pretty quickly, except you cant holster draw at our local indoor range

What do you want them to practice with their 50 rds? The Dot drill is a demanding test of fundamental marksmanship skills at speed and requires 36 rds. With the remaining 14 rds you can throw in 2 Bill Drills, one at 7 yds and one at 25 yds and you're done ...

Dot torture. 50 Rounds and repeatable at different distances.

I second the 36 round Garcia dot drill.

I like the Stoeger 50 round test, but is there a range of times for various classes so we have an idea

of what times to look for.

[def90]

Just took a 2 day CSAT handgun course. The entire course of fire is 24 rounds if you stick to the handgun only and skip the one rifle/handgun transition drill.

I recently took a class down in Saint Geroge at TPC (tactical performance center) and have been using their dot target to work on my accuracy.

3" dots at 7 yards. Draw and shoot one shot as fast as you can reliably get a hit in the dot, then draw and shoot two shots as fast as you can reliably get a hit in the dot, and so on. This is a very good drill with limited ammo and time.

[EA308]

I like the F.A.S.T. Test. It is only six rounds per test, but the test has 2 shots to a small head zone, a slide lock reload and 4 follow up shots to a larger circular area. I do this drill for slide lock and hot reloads.

[Ah0386]

Going try some of these drills.

Step 1-

With your target set at five to seven yards, begin with a two-hand hold and slow-fire your first magazine or cylinder. Take your time and focus on a smooth deliberate trigger press and clear front sight.

Step 2-

Reload your handgun and repeat the first drill only this time fire all rounds using your strong/dominant hand only. Again, take your time and focus on solid marksmanship fundamentals. One of the keys to success when shooting single-handed is to ensure your wrist is locked.

Step 3

Continue your practice session. Reload your handgun and fire the next exercise using your support/off hand only. Again, focus intently on your front sight and be sure your trigger press is smooth and deliberate. Lock your wrist so the gun doesn’t flail about.

Step 4

We now move on to holster drills. With your handgun loaded and holstered, smoothly draw and engage the target. Fire two shots and then slowly and hesitantly re-holster. Never race back to the holster, GO SLOW. Repeat the drill until the gun is empty.

Step 5

Download your magazines to three or four rounds. Begin with a partially loaded handgun. Engage the target until the gun runs dry and reload. Repeat the drill two or three more times. If you are using a revolver this is more difficult but can be accomplished with speed-loaders or quick-strips.”

[Beastly]

About 300 rounds of dry fire with 50 rounds of live fire mixed in to validate....

[Bryanbach]

Incorporating a slide lock, tactical reloads, loading one dummy round into a mag, as well as shooting from standing, kneeling, and behind cover.

[newmexicocrawler]

That dot drill is a good drill....I do it from time to time

+1 on this. Very good overall practice

[mike4540]

I need to get into a better training routine, as some of these here look like a good place to start.
