The Plate Rack Dryfire Drill - MARS Mobile

A plate rack drill is an incredibly powerful drill for testing your ability to transition between targets. Simply put, it consists in it’s most basic form of putting 1 round onto 6 plates each, as quickly as you can. Plate racks are pretty common in competitive shooting stages, so drilling this at home can be really beneficial for your competition times.

Project MARS supports running plate rack drills at home and you can make the targets yourself. I like to outline a real 8 inch steel plate with cardboard, and then I cut out six circles. I then hang these on the wall to simulate a plate rack.

We set up circle style targets during target setup, in our case, we'll set up 6 targets. Selecting the plate rack drill from the drills area of the MARS Mobile app and hit continue.

This drill utilizes the shot timer features of MARS Mobile. It'll use either the random or fixed start time based on your settings. After the beep, draw and drill the targets as quickly as you can. The goal of this drill isn't pin point accuracy. Your goal is speed with acceptable accuracy.

Shoot this drill over and over again, focusing on speed and shooting cadence. Over time you'll see that this dryfire drill will improve your performance on the real plate rack at the live range.
