Designed by: Karl Rehn
Range: 2-7 yards
Target: IDPA or USPSA
Start Position: Varies
Rounds Fired: 20
This is a short skills test that centers around tasks performed in three seconds or less - a nod to the likely character of event being short distance, low round count, in a limited amount of time. See link to original write-up for clarification and additional comments from the designer: https://www.krtraining.com/IPSC/Info...ondsOrLess.htm
Scoring: Several targets are mentioned in the original write up, but let's simplify and use an IDPA or USPSA target if possible. A/-0 zone and head box are 5 points. C/-1 zone are 3 points. D/-3 zone and misses are zero points. Overtime shots score zero points.
Set the par time at 3 seconds for all strings in the drill. Unless otherwise noted, use two hands and shoot freestyle.
