The Dicken Drill
- The drill must be shot cold
- Shooter at the firing line, 50 yards from the target, gun holstered and concealed
- 30 seconds of jumping jacks
- At the beep, the shooter advances to the 40-yard line, drawing and bracing against the object staged at that line. The shooter remains standing while bracing.
- Must advance from 50 yards to 40 yards and fire first shot within 10 seconds
- Fire ten shots from 40 yards, center mass
- All shots must be fired within 15 seconds once the firing string begins
- Shots must fall within the 8 ring of a B27 or the C zone of an IPSC target to count. Shots bisecting lines for those zones count as hits.
- 80% hit rate to pass, 100% success rate for a perfect score risking zero innocent bystanders. Scoring such as: 8 hits, 2 bystanders risked or 9 hits, 1 bystander risked.
