Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key components of the Kasarda Drill's Stage 1?

Stage 1 of the Kasarda Drill involves starting in a designated box, engaging two rifle steel targets from a prone position, performing a specific two-handed underhand kettlebell throw for repositioning, and then engaging the rifle targets again from a new position. Finally, it concludes with a pistol engagement on a spinner target.

What are the rules for throwing the kettlebell in the Kasarda Drill?

The kettlebell must be thrown using a two-handed underhand technique. Spinning, shot-putting, or one-handed throws are not allowed and will result in penalties, requiring the shooter to engage targets from the kettlebell's landing spot before attempting another throw.

How does dust signature affect performance in the Kasarda Drill?

Dust signature from muzzle brakes can significantly obscure target visibility, forcing shooters to wait for dust clouds to clear or adjust their aiming points. This can lead to delays in target acquisition and engagement, impacting overall stage time.

What are the penalties for not engaging the spinner target in the Kasarda Drill?

Failing to engage the spinner target incurs a 60-second penalty. If a shooter deliberately chooses not to engage the spinner, they face a double penalty of 120 seconds, significantly impacting their score.
