We start with the duty load at the 25 yard line: 2 standing, 2 kneeling, 2 prone.

Walk toward the 15, stop & fire 2 rounds. At the 15, we fire, including a tactical reload and weak hand shooting. Generally, we holster between targets.

Walk toward the 5 yard line, stop & fire 2 rounds. More firing, a combat reload, then close combat shooting.

Finally, combat reload with the mag from the earlier tactical reload, holstering a loaded pistol with the last round chambered.

Passing grade is 70%. Exposures are timed.

It's a pretty good course that drills all the basics.
