This drill, demonstrated by Ben Stoeger, focuses on integrating movement into shooting by using vision barriers to create target acquisition challenges. The core principle is to maintain shooting proficiency while moving, emphasizing visual acquisition of the target and a brief sight confirmation rather than fixating on the sight itself. The drill aims to make shooting while moving feel indistinguishable from static shooting.

This video details a competitive firearms training drill called the "B Team" competition. The drill involves a combination of running, strength exercises with ruck plates, and shooting at a steel target from various positions, including kneeling. Participants are timed, and penalties are applied for misses and procedural errors, emphasizing both speed and accuracy under physical duress.

This video details the 'Step Out Reload Drill,' a high-level training exercise for pistol shooters. It emphasizes maintaining a fast reload speed (1.3 seconds, or 1.1 with a magwell) while simultaneously stepping backward or forward. Key techniques include coordinating arm and leg movements, stopping with leg muscles, and keeping shoulders relaxed. The drill is recommended for advanced shooters and should be practiced in dry fire before live fire.

This video details the 'Bunny Stacks' drill, designed for improving close-range, high-speed shooting proficiency. Instructor Ben Stoeger emphasizes the importance of seamlessly integrating predictive and reactive shooting techniques, engaging closer targets with rapid 'dot press' and further targets with 'color confirmation'. The drill aims to develop unconscious competence in target transitions and pace management, while also highlighting common errors like tensing up and poor sight alignment.

This stage from Finnish Brutality 2019, 'BMP Escape', is a demanding tactical shooting drill. Competitors start inside a BMP, engage pistol targets, then transition to a rifle to neutralize multiple steel targets and move equipment (dummy and ammo cans) under adverse conditions, including rain. The stage emphasizes speed, accuracy, and physical exertion, requiring shooters to manage equipment and maintain focus in a challenging environment.

This video showcases a segment of the GlockStore's 'Shoot Your Mouth Off' competition, focusing on speed shooting drills. Participant Brett demonstrates rapid firing, achieving two shots in under one second. The content highlights training for moving and shooting scenarios, preparing for the competition against Mark Larson.

This video details a handgun transition drill designed to improve speed and accuracy in competitive shooting disciplines like USPSA, IPSC, and IDPA. The drill focuses on minimizing time spent transitioning between targets, emphasizing a fast draw, precise sight acquisition, and rapid target engagement. It's structured to build speed while maintaining accuracy, particularly on obscured targets.

This video details the final stage of a competitive shooting match, focusing on an ambidextrous rifle handling skill drill. Shooters engage multiple steel targets from various barricades, transitioning between strong and weak shoulder shooting. The drill emphasizes proficiency in both right and left-handed shooting positions, highlighting the challenges and techniques involved in rapid transitions and accurate engagement under pressure.

This video details Stage 2 of a competition, involving shooting a steel target at 250 yards from a tank trap, followed by a kettlebell carry drill. The stage emphasizes the physical demands of competitive shooting, requiring participants to transition from shooting to a strenuous physical task and back. It highlights the effectiveness of iron sights at extended ranges for those proficient with them, while also acknowledging the potential advantages of optics as a force multiplier, especially under time pressure or with limited iron sight experience.

This video details a classic shooting drill used in various training environments, specifically applied to the IDPA classifier. The drill involves starting with hands overhead, turning on a signal, engaging targets with two shots, performing a speed reload, and then engaging targets again with two more shots. The Sig Sauer 1911 Fastback Nightmare is used, highlighting its features for concealed carry and customizability.
