Reading Shot Patterns to Identify What Matters Next
Most shooters run drills and shoot groups. Fewer know what to do after the target is shot.
Some shooters are self-guided and make solid progress. Others follow drills or programs that work for a while—until they don’t. Patterns begin to repeat, results flatten out, and there’s often very little guidance on what actually needs to change next. Generic charts, forum advice, or one-time fixes may help temporarily, but they often miss what’s really driving the pattern on your target.
That’s where RifleKraft Target Reading comes in.
Over the years, I’ve reviewed tens of thousands of targets—through software-based submissions and through shooting schools that use the Kraft Challenge as a preliminary diagnostic and improvement metric. Across all of that data, the same truth shows up repeatedly: shooters don’t stall because they aren’t trying hard enough. They stall because the wrong variable is being worked, or the right one isn’t being prioritized.
This service exists to identify that variable and give you a clear, practical direction forward.
