My mechanical engineer daughter who works for Stanley/Dewalt would probably love this discussion.
My brother also works for them. In a marketing capacity though.
That being said, I’m more of a Milwaukee guy

Prone is on your stomach. Supine is on your back. My mother was an English teacher.
Great day at the range today. Shot mostly rifle, but played around with pistol taking shots at steel at 100 yards - surprisingly, we both made a several hits.
Rifle drills we ran:
2x - two "A" zone shots at 7 yards from low ready.
2x2 - same as above with a transition to another target for a total of 4 shots
3x3 - two A and one 3x5 "head shot," two targets.
We also went out to 250 yards prone, and 50 and 100 from standing.
My buddy was doing better than I was, consistently getting two A zone hits in about 1.1 sec . I was pretty inconsistent and varied between 1-1.5. I also had my first "trigger freeze" experience - I was gripping too tightly and didn't allow the trigger to reset before attempting the next shot. I've got a lot of work to do...it's amazing how much I've learned in one afternoon shooting against the timer - optic height, cheek weld, grip - I'm beginning to question these things I thought I knew and was comfortable with. Getting off of the static/square 100yd range is a blast!
We finished up with 100 yard pistol attempts from standing. In my last round, I nailed 3/5 shots and figured I'd better call it a day
What's an A zone?
Save your money and use old cardboard and free paint samples from home Depot. Just use spray glue. Works like a charm. You can patch over there holes with a new paint card.These are the style targets we're using.
