Sure Shot Drilling: 1.5 TCR = 55% of Horizontal drilling (e.g., underground cable, pipeline, sewer installation) BLS 2.8 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Sure Shot Drilling safety composite

Sure Shot Drilling scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 48%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
