Shoot House Moving Targets are Key to Better Tactical Training

Why are X1 targets a great option for shoot houses and CQB training?


Most people familiar with shoot houses understand their fundamental purpose: to train for split-second decisions, threat assessments, and precise execution under pressure. However, the value of moving targets in these setups can’t be overstated:


  • Simulated Threats: Unlike static targets that only offer basic engagement, moving targets simulate unpredictable threats that force trainees to adjust their aim, timing, and tactics in real-time.


  • Enhanced Reflex Training: Moving targets require quick thinking and reactive shooting—skills that are critical for real-world operations where threats don’t stand still.


  • Decision-Making Under Pressure: The unpredictability of a moving target helps create stress conditions similar to those faced during actual engagements, improving a trainee’s ability to assess and react accurately.



The Problem with Conventional Moving Target Systems

While many shoot houses try to integrate movement into their training, traditional systems often fall short. Wheeled robotic targets, for instance, come with a set of challenges:

  • Operational Complexity: These systems often require someone to actively operate them, which can distract instructors from their main job of observing and critiquing trainees.

  • Mechanical Limitations: Wheeled robots can get stuck, crash into walls, or move erratically, leading to frustrating disruptions and wasted time.

  • Inconsistent Movement: Mechanical inconsistencies can make it hard to standardize training sessions, reducing their effectiveness.


Why the Dynamic Range X1 is a great shoot house addition

The Dynamic Range X1 moving target system addresses these challenges with a design that’s simple to use, reliable, and versatile. Here’s how it changes the game for shoot house training:


1. Hands-Free Automation for Efficient Training

The X1 can be programmed to run autonomously, freeing up instructors to focus on coaching rather than managing equipment. Once set up, the system can operate continuously on its pre-programmed path or in randomized movement mode, simulating more dynamic scenarios.


2. Consistent, Seamless Movement

Unlike wheeled systems, the X1 moves smoothly along a cable system, avoiding the pitfalls of erratic movement and crashes. This reliability ensures uninterrupted training and consistent performance, making each session as effective as possible.


3. Flexible and Quick Setup

With bolt anchors and a stretched cable, you can have the X1 ready to go in no time.


4. Randomized and Programmable Patterns

Trainees need to stay on their toes, and the X1 delivers with customizable movement patterns. You can create repeatable sequences for training standard drills or choose random movement to replicate more chaotic, real-world engagements.


In a world where preparedness can make all the difference, upgrading your shoot house with moving targets is an investment in precision, effectiveness, and safety
