Thanks in advance for any info.

This is something most do not want to post for some reason....but I will give you what I have ...keep in mind it may not be exactly what your instructor(s) do....

3 Yards (9')
1 round fired from the ready position in 3 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 5 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 5 seconds

1 round fired from the presentation position in 5 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 7 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 7 seconds


5 Yards (15')
1 round fired from the ready position in 3 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 5 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 5 seconds

1 round fired from the presentation position in 5 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 7 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 7 seconds


7 Yards (21')
1 round fired from the ready position in 4 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 6 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 6 seconds

1 round fired from the presentation position in 6 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 8 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 8 seconds


10 Yards (30')
1 round fired from the ready position in 4 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 6 seconds
2 round fired from the ready position in 6 seconds

1 round fired from the presentation position in 6 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 8 seconds
2 round fired from the presentation position in 8 seconds


12 Yards (36')
5 round fired from the presentation position in12 seconds

15 Yards (45')
5 round fired from the presentation position in15 seconds

Now my instructor, gave us one round as fast as we could
one round as long as we wanted (30 seconds) shows you how long 30 seconds really is.
etc.

Most I have seen will tell you NO SINGLE ACTION, or will tell you if it is all you have, but I rather you not.
some may not care.

I do not recommend it. you miss a lot of the understanding shooting a single action...

such as rapid fire, control timing.
