The 4567 Drill is a USPSA training drill designed to sharpen accuracy, transitions, and round management. It involves engaging four targets with increasing numbers of shots: 4, 5, 6, and 7 rounds, respectively. The shooter starts by firing 4 rounds at the first target, then 5 rounds at the second target, 6 at the third, and 7 at the fourth. This drill helps shooters improve target transitions, recoil management, and shot discipline, as the round count varies for each target, requiring careful focus to avoid miscounting shots.
The 4567 Drill is excellent for developing the shooter’s ability to control the pace and rhythm of firing, especially when moving between targets. The varying shot counts also add a mental challenge, ensuring the shooter maintains composure and accuracy throughout.
