    Lol. It’s a head shot as the two body shots (double tap if I could swear like that) failed to stop the paper target.

    Ye olde Moçambique drille.

    BigT is being nasty because this dril is very difficult. I am human.
    If it wasn’t difficult what would the point be ?


    Nah last one isn’t a failure to stop done twice. It’s like a double FTS

    Four body and then two head not two one two one.

    Any reason this drill over so many others out there?

    I think it measures a range of realistic defensive skills.

    Diluting the expensive carry ammo for testing and training is working well.
    Took a bit of time to get the reloads to the similar vel etc as the premium carry.

    Found that I need a timer . what will this set me back?

    My reloads are not in anyway speced to my carry ammo. Doesn’t really matter dude.

    It will matter if the reloads are much softer than your carry. I do not believe it will not matter for the purposes intended.

    I don’t think it matters unless you’re carrying full power 357 magnum and shooting 38 wadcutters.

    The recoil difference between full power 9mm and a reasonable reload is massively less than the above.


    The volume you shoot and the quality of that shooting matter far far more than minutiae like that.

    It makes a big difference with what I carry ( 180@950 vs 200 @1120 10mm or 200 vs 230 45)
    What is a reasonable reload? 1% deviation?

    With this reasoning dry fire would be of no use at all.
