Bill Drill

Overview

The Bill Drill is a classic speed-shooting exercise that tests your ability to draw and deliver six rapid shots into the A-zone of a single USPSA target. It is one of the most widely used benchmarks for raw draw-and-split speed.

Setup

• Target: 1 USPSA cardboard target
• Distance: 7 yards
• Round count: 6 rounds
• Start position: Hands relaxed at sides, gun holstered

Course of Fire

1. On the buzzer, draw and fire 6 rounds at the target as fast as you can.
2. All 6 rounds must hit inside the A-zone to count as a clean run.

Scoring

Time is your score — lower is better. Only clean runs (all A-zone hits) should be recorded. A competitive benchmark is under 2.0 seconds; sub-1.5 seconds is elite.
