Course Overview: Marksmanship is a crucial foundation for any responsibly armed American. Now that you have completed your foundational training, it is time to test yourself on the range.

Course of Fire: You will now complete a series of basic handgun marksmanship challenges meant to test your accuracy at different ranges. There will be NO time limits. This is purely a test of your accuracy with your self-defense handgun.

Stage 1: Put your target 3 yards away from you on the range. Fire 10 rounds at the 9-inch center circle. Stage 2: Move your target until it is 5 yards away from you. Fire 10 rounds at the 9-inch center circle. Stage 3: Move your target until it is 7 yards away from you. Fire 10 rounds at the 9-inch center circle. Stage 4: Move your target until it is 10 yards away from you. Fire 10 rounds at the 9-inch center circle. Stage 5: Move your target until it is 15 yards away from you. Fire 10 rounds at the 9-inch center circle. Assessment: If you successfully placed 70% of your shots (35 or more) inside the 9-inch center target, you have completed your Level 01 USCCA Qualification. (“Inside” does not include breaking the ring; shots must fully be inside the ring to count.)
