Description

Using a B8 target center instead of the big zone of an IPSC/IDPA target is what makes this such an interesting drill. Being able to turn in precision at speed (especially at the 25 and 15yd lines) is very representative of the performance standards Ethan and his military colleagues expect in their real world day jobs.

The 10 Round Assault Course is an excellent exercise for competitive shooters looking to sharpen their skills in USPSA, IDPA, or other practical shooting sports. It emphasizes the importance of shot placement, efficient transitions between targets, and maintaining composure under time constraints.
