THE PROBLEM: STAGNATION Most shooters hit a plateau and stay there. You put in the reps, but you don't get faster or more accurate. Why? Because you are practicing without accountability. You are guessing at your speed and hoping for results. THE SOLUTION: MEASURABLE REALITY This app removes the guesswork. We provide the Canonical Shooting Standards—hard data points derived from high-performance 'A' Class metrics. We give you the exact logic to measure your performance against reality, not your feelings. PRIMARY FEATURES: DRY FIRE + LIVE FIRE + APP REACTION FIRE (ARF) PACE: THE RHYTHMIC INDEX (USP) Speed is not about rushing; it’s about efficiency. * Audible Metronome: A default 0.30s tick allows you to "index" your movement sub-segments. * The Cadence: Hear the rhythm of a sub-second draw. - Tick 1: Reaction to Grip. - Tick 2: Grip to Support Hand Join. - Tick 3: Extension to Shot. * Result: You stop fumbling and start flowing. ARF (APP REACTION FIRE) Isolate your brain-to-finger connection. * Reality Check: If you can't hit the par here, you can't hit it on the range. CANONICAL DRILL LIBRARY Pre-loaded, locked standards for Dry Fire, Live Fire, and ARF. * 8 Core Drills: Aimed+1, Low Ready+1, Draw+1, Draw+2, Bill Drill, 2x3, Reload, El Prez. * Logic Stack: Every PAR time is built on transparent math (Base Reaction + Mechanical Action + Audible Buffer). * High Performance Defaults: We give you the target. It’s up to you to hit it. NO FLUFF. NO GAMING. This isn't a game. It is a diagnostic engine for shooters who demand improvement. Get some.

SightQuick is the faster, smarter way to zero your rifle, pistol, or bow. Print a target, fire a group, snap a photo — SightQuick reads your shots and tells you exactly how to adjust. No more guesswork, no more "Kentucky windage," no more burning a box of ammo to chase your zero. The math happens on your phone, in seconds. HOW IT WORKS 1. Generate & print a target. Pick your paper size — Letter, A4, Tabloid, or large ANSI/ARCH sheets for a print shop — and print a uniquely-coded target on your own printer. 2. Shoot a group. Fire three or more shots at the orange aim dot from a steady rest. 3. Scan it. Photograph the target — even at an angle. SightQuick straightens the image, overlays a virtual MOA/MIL grid sized to your optic and distance, finds every hole, and measures the group against your point of aim. 4. Dial it in. Rifle and pistol: get exact windage/elevation clicks, then fire another group so SightQuick calibrates to your optic's real-world click value. Archery: it tells you which way and how far to move your sight. WHY SHOOTERS LOVE IT • Rifle, pistol red dots, and archery — MOA or MIL optics at any distance, in yards or meters. • Imperial or metric, defaulting to your region. Targets print clean and gridless — the grid is virtual, drawn at scan time to match your setup, so one sheet works at any distance. • Reads your shots automatically with on-device computer vision — then lets you confirm or fine-tune every hole with a tap. • Smart two-group calibration accounts for how your optic actually tracks vs. its marked clicks. • Everything runs on your device. Your photos never leave your phone. • Save a profile for every setup and keep a history of every session. • Every group reports its size — extreme spread and mean radius, in inches/cm and MOA/MIL. • Reloaders: print a numbered load-development ladder, shoot a group per charge weight, and scan the whole sheet in one photo — SightQuick ranks the groups and highlights your accuracy node. • Shooting at a partner range? Activate a SightQuick range target by scanning its code — no credit needed. FAIR, SIMPLE PRICING Your first target is free. After that, buy print credits — each credit creates one uniquely-coded target, good for a complete zeroing session you can re-photograph as you dial in. Nothing to ship, nothing to throw away. Get to your zero faster. Download SightQuick and make your next range trip count.
