Did a little shooting today. Took my unmodified M&P9 2.0. Range didn't allow holster, so this was all from the ready:
Cleaned the Dot Torture Drill at 5 yards.
Tried the Dots 3/5/7 Drill once:
You can see at 7 yards it took me a few rounds to hit my elevation, but once I found it I was on for the last 2 shots. Looking at the math, hitting a 0.5 inch circle at 7 yards makes me effective against someone with body armor at extended distances (80+ yards).
We should call it the Jack Wilson drill

Re: Dot Torture Drill
Looks good! I'll try that next. Been getting into the dot drills. Thanks!Scott B. wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 3:29 pm I worked Dot Torture, the 5x5 drill, and Vickers' 10yrd drill pretty heavily last year. This year I'm trying to mix it up with some new ones.
This is a finesse drill I created a while back. A tweak of others drills I've seen. I call it Dots 3-5-7 and it consists of 25 shots total. 10 at 3 yards, 10 at 5 yards, and 5 at 7 yards. Hits must cut the line. Passing is 50%. Print on standard letter sized paper.

The website had a free target download. Enjoyed it. For 50 rounds it lets you try out decent variations of handgun shooting.
Cleaned the 8.5x11 sized target at 3 yards. Gonna try longer distances, time, etc.
My new phaser makes very small holes
