Stage 5, Stresspeisen is a simple stage. Build a proper position and shoot the target as many times as you can inside the timelimit. Target size ø35 cm, range 450 meters. A good magazine solution is really helpful at this stage.

Stage 4, RPS Rock is a ø 25 cm target at 423 meters. Shoot it 10 times, 2 times each from 5 different positions. Allowed time is 3 minutes. A lot of shooters run out of time, so a stellar stage tip here is to move quickly between the positions.

Stage 3, Biathlon Runner has 5 targets size 10x10cm at 365 meters. Run up to the firing point and shoot them as fast as possible. Miss, and you can run for additional ammunition. Hitting on first shot clearly works best, find the balance between your pulse and shooting.

Stage 2, The Dancer has 1 target at 394 meters. Shooter has 30 seconds and a maximum of 10 shots available. As the target is suspended from a long line, it will move a fair bit when hit. This makes trigger control extra important as the shooter must decide where to intercept the target. Stage average was 3 hits.
