In every case the point should be signalled to rise a second time in order that his position may be shown to those men who previously failed to see him, and half a minute should then be allowed to these men to adjust their sights for Standard Test (x). Failures must not exceed one per man, but consideration must be given to the visibility of the points. (ix) =Recognition of Targets.=--The men to be tested should each have an aiming-rest or sandbags for laying aim. A non-commissioned officer from behind them will describe some difficult aiming-point, such as a point in a hedge or area of open ground. The men aim their rifles at the point which they recognize from the description. Four points should be described for every man tested. (x) =Judging Distance.=--The distances of four standing fatigue men should be judged at distances not exceeding 800 yards. (xi) =Grouping with Miniature Cartridges.=--For regular troops, the grouping standards for miniature cartridge practice at 25 yards will be: Marksmen, 1-inch ring; 1st Class, 2-inch ring; 2nd Class, 3-inch ring. Section =50=.--Progression of Instruction in Range and Field Practices. =1.= After the soldier has been trained thoroughly in elementary instruction in aiming and firing, and has passed the oral inspection and standard tests of preliminary training satisfactorily, he may be considered fit to commence range practices, with which his instruction in individual and collective firing will begin. The progression of this instruction may be divided roughly into the following stages: (i) =Individual Firing.=--(_a_) Instruction on miniature ranges and 30 yards ranges. (_b_) Range practices. (_c_) Individual field practices. (ii) =Collective Firing.=--Collective field practices. =2. Instruction on 30 Yards and Miniature Ranges.=--Instruction on 30 yards ranges is dealt with in Sec. 55. Instruction on miniature ranges is dealt with fully in Chapter X, which contains directions for firing elementary and instructional range practices, as well as individual and collective field practices on these ranges. 3. =Range Practices.=--Range practices consist of the following practices and stages of instruction: (i) =Practices.=--(_a_) _Grouping._ (_b_) _Application._ (_c_) _Snap-shooting._ (_d_) _Rapid Firing._ (ii) =Stages of Instruction.=--The above practices are arranged in a series of tables for recruits and trained soldiers, demanding a gradually increasing degree of skill on the part of the firer, and are divided into the following stages of instruction: (_a_) _Qualifying Practices._ (_b_) _Instructional Practices._ (_c_) _Classification Practices._ =4. Field Practices.=--Individual and collective field practices are dealt with in this chapter and in Chapters VIII and X. The general programme of field practice should be arranged as follows: (i) Individual field practices. (ii) Fire direction practices. (iii) Collective field practices, divided into--
