Saiko J3 Tactical Rifle Standards:

The Saiko (supreme) standards were developed with the elite shooter in mind. These times have been carefully chosen through trial and error and feedback from some great shooters. They are extreme but they are absolutely achievable.

The Saiko J3 Tactical rifle standards includes a heavy emphasis on speed and accuracy to prepare for a self-defense situation. There is no such thing as being too good when you are fighting for your life.

The test includes the following:
- Speed
- Accuracy
- Weapons manipulation
- Movement
- Transitions

We created the Saiko rifle standards to give shooters some insane times to strive for and incentive to improve. We emphasize performance while under stress and pressure.

The rifle standards test can also be a part of private training or designated special training events.
