    OBJECTIVE

    Use a crosshair overlay on the target center mass. Fire three shots as close to the crosshair center as possible. Time limit: 3 minutes. Range: 25 yards (see Notes [1]).",

    GOAL

    Achieve a Accuracy under 3 inches. Accuracy before speed.

    WHAT YOU NEED

    LASERHIT B3 target (scaled) and a LASERHIT Training Kit.

    Alternatively, print a free B3 target, use your own laser cartridge or laser training device, and mount a smartphone on a tripod.

    No rifle optics are required. You may use a red dot, EOTech, LPVO, or iron sights.

    NOTES

    [1] Range refers to the real-world distance defined for the drill. Firing Range is the actual indoor distance and is calculated automatically based on target scale before training begins.

    [2] The LASERHIT B3 target at a 1:10 scale is recommended; other genuine LASERHIT targets may also be used.

    [3] When using your own targets, use a solid, dark target surface for best detection. A LASERHIT reload mark is needed and can be downloaded for free from the LaserHIT website (laserhit.com/targets). Set the correct Target Scale during Firing Range setup before starting the drill.

    ‍ ‍

    Laser Zeroing (Recommended)

    For best accuracy, perform Laser Zeroing for each drill.

    At the Cease Fire state, tap the crosshair icon in the top panel. Align the crosshair with your point of aim and follow the on-screen prompts to register three zeroing shots.

    Once confirmed, LASERHIT applies this adjustment to all hits in the drill. Re-zero whenever you change firearms, remove the laser cartridge, or adjust your setup.

    DRILL DETAILS

    This drill builds practical rifle accuracy by evaluating deviation from the intended point of aim rather than group size. During Express Setup (Step 2), the shooter must manually position the crosshairs precisely at the intended aim point on the target to establish a correct reference. Accurate rifle shooting depends on consistent alignment between point of aim and point of impact, supported by fundamentals such as sight alignment, sight picture, trigger control, and stability. Measuring windage (left/right) and elevation (up/down) relative to the crosshair center exposes even subtle inconsistencies in technique and helps diagnose errors early. The short three-shot string provides efficient, repeatable feedback, allowing focused refinement of precision and consistency without unnecessary time or ammunition expenditure. This type of offset-based evaluation is widely used in rifle marksmanship training to reinforce disciplined fundamentals and exact shot placement.

 

DRILL PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

LASERHIT displays windage and elevation for each shot and calculates the Accuracy (inches) once the stage is completed.

    • Accuracy - Deviation from the crosshair center

    • 14.33 - Most recent Accuracy (inches)

    • 21% - Progress toward the goal based on the latest result

    • Bars - Each bar represents one completed stage

    • Grey bar - Goal not met

    • Blue bar - Goal met

    • Goal - Accuracy under 3 inches

    • Accuracy - Most recent result and change from the previous stage

    • Red number - Indicates regression from the previous stage

    • Green number - Indicates improvement from the previous stage

    • Success - Indicates whether the goal was met in the most recent stage

    • Success Rate - Percentage of stages in which the goal has been met

    • Down Time - Time elapsed since the last stage was completed
