It’s already in the rules 4.1. We have a few clubs here that do the same. It does help speed the match along. That’s the only positive thing I can say about it.

The T-Minus club in Albany TX ran SCSA for just a few months...not sure what happened for them to stop SC. Anyway, it's where I saw these diagrams w/descriptions. Stage diagram printed & attached to a target stand on each stage. About 18x24". Here's the Outer Limits diagram with OL setup in the background. Professionally done, and pretty damn cool.

Gregg, Take a look at this site. Someone put together a nice set of diagrams with measurements and descriptions of all of the stages. PDF's available - better than just the diagram from the appendix in the rulebook. I noted minor inconsistencies between diagrams and descriptions on a couple of the stages, but not really anything consequential. Steel Challenge stage guides The written description of both the setup and the procedure for OL & SHO are in section "2.2 Layout of Stages" in the current rulebook. I looked at the Practiscore write-up...almost word for word, but minor differences.

Sounds like a leftover remnant of a copy/paste from USPSA rule book. 2011 & 2013 SCSA rule books don’t mention it. I have a 2019 rulebook where it first appears (don’t have anything between 2013-2019, so it may appear earlier). At A4 SC last weekend, didn’t see any diagrams, or RO’s reading the WSB like is done at USPSA matches - with the exception being the stage that the A4 director was running…but I suspect that is only because of his long MD/CRO/RO experience at USPSA matches. I thought it was unusual, and meant to tease him a bit about it later. I’ve only been to two WSSC’s and 3 Area SC’s and don’t recall ever hearing an RO provide a stage briefing like is done at L2 and above USPSA events. And if you look at the stage diagram in the appendices, there is no procedural description on any of the stage diagrams, OL & SHO procedures are described elsewhere in rulebook.

Forward Controls Design plate is phenomenal. I have these on a g17g5 and a g47. Rock solid mount for my SRO’s

@RangerTrace In 2019/2020, M160 ran SCSA matches (I think 8 or 9), and XMG ran a few (like, maybe 2) in late 2021. Both of those clubs were affiliated with SCSA, but neither hung around long enough to gain much traction. A club in Sanger runs SC stages, 3 of the 5 that they run are setup to spec, and the others are range constrained. In 2022, DPC converted one of their monthly steel matches to run SC stages (with the correct stage measurements). Neither of these club matches are marketed or affiliated with SCSA, so no classifiers...it's just practice. @Hoops As to Ken's experience with SCSA - I'm trying to bring him up to speed with what I know and have experienced. He's a quick study. I think he'll be a great advocate for SC.

Ken is in DFW area of Texas

^This.

@ZackJones, Have you made a decision as to when we could expect to see LO in SCSA? Maybe add it in time for WSSC in late May or A4 in early April?

Noticed this registration link yesterday - not sure how long it's been up on Practiscore For those interested, it's in Corpus Christi TX April 2024 https://practiscore.com/aera-4-steel-challenge-championship-2024/register

Does anyone know when registration opens for WSSC24? https://practiscore.com/the-ruger-world-speed-shooting-championship-presented-by-vortex/register

try egwguns.com Mounts by Firearm Brand / Sight Cut - Pistol & Red Dot Mounts (egwguns.com) I have one of theirs on a Glock 17 gen 3 for a vortex venom - never an issue.

initial bod announcement Important Update from USPSA Board of Directors new fee structure not detailed initial thread on enos

@Hoops, you're not misinformed. Limited Optics is a provisional division in USPSA - recognized for matches as of May 2023 (best I recall). IMO, the USPSA BOD didn't know it would attract the level of interest/support in the USPSA community that it has. My guess is that it will be included by the next WSSC or by Jan 2024.
