Training Notes:
- Fire as fast as you can hit! It’s okay to miss in training. If you don’t push the envelope, you will not discover your limitations. Set your mental clock to go as fast as you can and still achieve positive results.
- If possible, incorporate the use of cover when reloading.
- Use a target with a realistic size, high value scoring area.
