And passed with 100%?
Both Ken Hackathorn and Larry Vickers apparently use this drill in some of their classes. 10 yards, 10 seconds, 10 rounds (or you can remove one second for each round fewer than 9 your handgun holds; I shot 9 rounds under 9 seconds out of my 1911 .45 for example) shot from low ready or (more advanced) from the holster, on a B-8 target. Goal is all shots in the black with under 10 seconds. Vickers and hackathorn use the scoring rings and you need a 90 to pass (out of 100; Larry says all shots have to be in the black). Or you can be really harsh and add 1 second down for each point down (that allows one shot in the 9 for a pass if you're fast enough).
Sounds easy. I just tried it for the first time with my Dan Wesson heritage. Couldn't clean it (100 points) in 4 attempts. Best I got was 1 in the 9 the rest in the 10/x. First 2 times I had 2 in the 9 the rest in the 10/x.
I cleaned it with my .22/45 but it took 3 tries.
