275 | Your True Accuracy and Shooting Standards with Chris Way

Chris Way is a well-rounded adventurer, explorer, climber, shooter, and much more. Recently, Chris developed a specific target and shooting drill to assess his true accuracy capabilities with a rifle and also track his shooting performance and improvement over time. While he developed this protocol for his needs as a precision rifle competitor, the protocol is extremely relevant to us, as hunters. Tune in to hear more about how you can shoot this drill, assess your true accuracy, and track your performance leading up to your next hunt. Best of all, this protocol is accessible to everyone and only requires a 100-yard range and a simple paper target you can print at home.
