Pistol, compressed ready 1.0s
Pistol, from holster 1.5s
Rifle, low ready (45°) 1.0s
Rifle, high ready (45°) 1.0s
Rifle-to-pistol transition 2.5s

Setup

C-zone steel or IPSC target at 25 yards. Rifle and pistol required. Rifle starts loaded, pistol holstered. 5 iterations on a C-zone target at 25 yards. No warm-up allowed. Total: 5 rounds of all. 15 rounds for long man card.

Strategy

This is a cold test of fundamentals—run it without warm-up. Each iteration is pass/fail on both time and accuracy. Focus on consistent presentations and clean trigger presses.
