Reading Kevin Creighton, he describes a formalized set of Skill Drills he uses with pistol. The goal seems to be getting in all the chosen skills, in organized fashion, using only one box of 50 rounds.
Given the price of ammunition today (still), this seems a capital idea. I feel no compunction towards swiping it for myself.
So..... this is what I have cooked up. I believe I can shoot it with one box of ammo, and one silhouette target with 7 target-center pasters on the lower half. The targets might be better split between a silhouette and a sheet of cardboard with pasters on it, or even just my old paper plates with a dot.
All shots are for score, and all are timed.
I'll give it a try next week, and report back.
Thoughts?

What distance is expected?
My thinking is 15 yards to begin. Accuracy and speed are neck and neck at that range.
