<p class="callout info">Drill Description:</p>

Targets appear at a fixed distance, either hanging or floating within the scene. The objective is to eliminate all targets as quickly as possible without missing a shot. Points are awarded based on accuracy.  
To increase the level of competitiveness, activate the Penalties ON option—each missed shot will add a 1-second time penalty to your final score, pushing you to balance speed with precision.

Depending on the selected mode, targets may appear all at once or one by one.
