Default Is there a book of drills??

Is there a book of shooting drills out there? Either for pistol or rifle or both? Got a small handful of drills I like to practice when out shooting but I thought it would be nice to have a book to keep in my range bag that details a variety of different drills. I have looked for such a book but didn't find anything. Yes I know I can look up a host of different drills on the internet but again it would be nice to have a book to keep in the range bag that I can pull out while I'm in the desert or mountains shooting and set up some different scenarios/drills. Thanks.

every 3gn classifier stage.
every uspsa classifier.

any book that has dry fire drills but do them live fire. most drills that are done with a pistol can be adapted to rifle quite easily as well.

Green Eyes, Black Rifle.
Dry Fire Reloaded.

and get a shot timer as well. use objective rather than subjective data.

Not really. At least from my searches, most are DVD's and I'm looking for a book. And most of the books that turn up focus more on fundamentals of shooting and/or tactics. I'm just looking for a collection of different drills. I'm on M4carbine.net as well (should have checked there first) and found this: http://progunfighter.com/wp-content/...-Sept-2015.pdf I'll probably just print that and make my own "book".

Good idea using 3GN and USPSA classifiers. I was able to find the PDF for the USPSA ones from their website. Any idea where I can find the 3GN ones?

Also, just found this....looks interesting: http://www.larue.com/tacost-card-sets-tricon

So I ended up making my own "book of drills" in a Rite in the Rain notepad that I keep in my range bag now. I used the progunfighter.com link that Don the savage posted as well as the "Favorite Drills" thread on M4Carbine.net. Here are the drills that I have in that notepad so far and have been practicing for the last several months:

MNQ Drill
V-TAC 1-5 Drill
V-TAC Transition Drill
Mozambique Drill
Hostage Drill
Redback One Operator Readiness Test
Box Drill
El Presidente Drill
Sicario Drill

Here's me running the 1-5 drill and the Mozambique drill. Fun times!

Or you can use your imagination to design a drill for the specific skill you wish to work on.

Take a look at Pat McNamara's TAPS book.

I salute him for his service, but I cannot support Pat McNamara.
