Putting some focused practice time in for an all rifle HF match in November. Simple yet challenging setup in the rain. Rain melting paper and pasters made this a perfect day to focus on the mini steel. It forces A zone accountability when shooting aggressively at greater distances. Cones were set up in a zig zag pattern at 50-40-35-30-25-20 yds with enough for short burst movements in between.

Got to work:
- Forward and retreating movement
- Different angles coming into position
- Getting the gun up early to shoot sooner
- Multiple distances
- Adjusting aiming schemes for different distances
- Which levels of confirmation were needed
- Physical stress and how that affects your shooting
- HF scored (rain was messing with the timer, so no score today)

It doesn't have to be complicated. It has to be focused, and you have to be paying attention to what's actually happening with your shooting. Hard skills built here can then be put into any context needed and function in the background on autopilot. This opens up bandwidth for you to concentrate on other things, i.e. tactics.
