“The Hateful A’s” drill is a modified version of the Hateful 8 drill created by Bill Blowers. Instead of a B-8 target, we’re using a USPSA Standard Torso to speed things up and make the practice translate more directly to competition shooting.
Level up your handgun fundamentals with the Accelerated Super Test, our Drill of the Month challenge. This timed B8 accuracy drill includes three rapid strings at 5, 10, and 15 yards with a 135-point minimum score requirement. Learn setup, scoring, handicaps, and tips to tighten your groups and improve match-ready consistency.
The Bill Drill is a classic, low round-count pressure test that pairs draw speed with recoil management and shot-calling. It’s pure fundamentals: grip, sights, trigger, cadence. Like most of our monthly picks, it’s solo-friendly and easily run on a single target with minimal setup required.
