results may be posted until 11:59pm EST on Monday 03-December-2012.
by Hilton Yam
Range: 7yd
Target: IDPA target (ie. 6" square head box and 8" circular body--any hits outside these areas are a miss!)
Start position: concealed holster with hands at sides or retention duty holster from interview position or long gun ready
Rounds fired: 65
A shot timer with PAR function is required for this drill. One can read about and download an original copy of this drill here: http://10-8performance.blogspot.com/2011/08/10-8-pistol-test.html
Here is a video of Jason Falla running the test: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JlP_9iWGjo&feature=related and another with "Surf" shooting it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05P9ARD4cj4.
Pick a par time (5, 6.5, or 8 sec) to use on all 12 strings of fire.
String 1: On the buzzer, draw from the holster and fire 4 rds to the body then 1 round to the head, strong hand only
String 2: On the buzzer, from a high two-hand ready, transfer the pistol to the support hand then fire 4 shots to the body and 1 shot to the head, WHO
String 3: On the buzzer from a high ready with an EMPTY chamber; rack slide to chamber a round using the strong hand only, then fire 4 head shots all SHO
String 4: On the buzzer from a high ready with an EMPTY chamber; rack slide to chamber a round using the weak hand only, then fire 4 body shots followed by 1 head shot all WHO
String 5: Start with the pistol aimed at the target, slide locked open, empty mag, SHO; on the buzzer reload SHO and fire 1 shot to the body
String 6: On the buzzer, from the holster, draw and fire 7 shots to the body and 1 to the head
String 7: Start with 7 rounds loaded in the pistol; on the buzzer draw from the holster and fire 7 shots to the body, reload from slide lock and shoot 1 to the head
String 8: On the buzzer draw from the holster and fire 8 shots to the head
String 9: Start with 3 rounds loaded in the pistol; on the buzzer from a high ready, fire 2 shots to the body and 1 shot to the head, reload from slide lock and repeat the 3 shots
String 10: Start with 2 rounds loaded in the pistol; on the buzzer draw from the holster and fire 1 shot to the body and 1 shot to the head, reload from slide lock and repeat the 2 shots
String 11: Start with 4 rounds loaded in the pistol; on the buzzer from a high ready, fire 4 shots to the body, reload from slide lock and then fire 4 shots to the head
String 12: Start with 1 round loaded in the pistol and 2 additional mags with 1 rd each; on the buzzer draw from the holster and fire 1 shot to the body, reload from slide lock and repeat twice
Please report the following when you post your results in this thread:
Start position (concealed or duty retention holster)
PAR time selected
Total number of hits within the PAR time
According to Hilton, once you can break 58-60 points on a given par time, you are ready to move to the next par time. You are doing quite well if you can break 60 points on the 5 second par, shooting per the protocol.
(if you cannot draw from a holster, your range sucks, as you CANNOT effectively train there; find a new range or club that allows realistic practice--hint, look to where your local USPSA and IDPA shooters train, as they must draw and move...)
Training with firearms is an inherently dangerous activity. Be sure to follow all safety protocols when using firearms or practicing these drills. These drills are provided for information purposes only. Use at your own risk.
