DrillShot turns range time into focused, competitive training. Run timed pistol drills with audio pars, go head-to-head in Game Mode, or play 301 — a darts-style countdown — then log every session and chase your personal bests. TIMED DRILLS Configurable rounds, interval times, prep countdowns, and rest periods. Audio beeps signal each phase so you can keep your eyes on the target. THREE DRILL STYLES Standard timed intervals, Bill Drill (all shots in one open-ended par), or Qualification mode (random shot counts with per-interval par times). Color modes and no-shoot rounds layer on top. TARGET TYPES Built-in targets — 9-Circle, Cardboard Silhouette, Dual-Zone Silhouette, Qualification, Universal Training, and Balloons — each with unique zones and drill calls. Build your own by scanning any target with AI or entering it manually, with a color for each zone. GAME MODE & 301 Run shooters head-to-head. Play 301 — a darts-style countdown where each shot subtracts its ring value and the first to hit exactly zero wins (overshoot busts the turn). Live scoreboard, manual or photo scoring, and Play Again rematch. AI TARGET SCANNING Photograph any target you own and the AI generates a matching drill. Analysis is scoped to target training only — no tactical or firearm-safety guidance. When confidence is low, a retake is requested instead of an uncertain result. HISTORY & STATS Log every drill with score, outcome, photos, and notes. Track progress over time with per-profile statistics and personal records. FREE & PRO Timed drills, three targets, and drill logging are free. Pro unlocks the 9-Circle, Dual-Zone, and Cardboard Silhouette targets, AI target scanning, Game Mode & 301, custom presets, multiple shooter profiles, competition scoring, and full history.
