Glad you had a great time. I was one of your RO's on Pendulum and it was good to meet you and your son. Look for you both next year

LOL I make POA a foot high so I can lob them to the plates

My Pcco load is 2.7gn of Bullseye , 115 plated Extreme head at 1.105 oal very soft

At Alabama State there was a cart where the muzzle's were pointing apox 6 to 7 feet in front of the cart so any time they pushed past people they were sweeping their lower legs... as a shooter ( and as a RO ) i would prefer all long guns in a case or scabbard they can still be carried in these carts just fine and then there is no discussion of taking them out at a berm and up or down.... the scabbards cost less than a box or two of 22 ammo and are quick and simple to use.

The problem is practice score still list it as "main Match " and has a overall listing which is of course is top heavy with rimfire and PCC times which gets the centerfire handgun guys panties in a wad. if they changed it to centerfire handgun( instead of main match ) and did away with a overall listing and just had each division listed then as a centerfire guy you would go to centerfire and see how you did... no need to see other division times unless you were curious ... also high match overall should go away for the same reason... just first 2nd, 3rd in each division ... still have steel master etc. maybe if it was done this way there would be less pissing about other divisions... JMHO

As others have said match is full... this one fills up in minuets not hours or days that being said watching some of the best is a thrill AND learning experience in itself also you might check with Zack Jones ... I don't know if it is possible to pay and shoot some practice up in the practice bays or not if it is possible then range time is always good. You would have to go through the safety brief and get the range card anyway.

I have shot and RO'd the last 4 worlds and last 4 Mississippi state matches at Miss they used Scouts to paint and they did a very good job and was as fast or faster than squad painted matches, especially where you sometimes had to call for painters a couple of times. BTW at worlds the "super" squad usually did a better job of being ready to paint then some others FWIW The number one thing I have seen that speeds up painting is a golf cart on Speed option and Outer limits save 10 to 20 seconds per shooter. dont sound like much but that is 2 to a little over 3 minutes saved per squad times 8 squads and you are finishing 15 to 30 minutes sooner per flight.

There is a wonderful and inspiring SCSA shooter that has no arms and shoots using his feet. there are adjustments for disabled ( not fond of that word ) shooters. rim fire would be the obvious choice and loading and un loading will be the challenge to work out. dropping the mag on a table or into a assisting RO's hand then with permission shooting the last chambered rd into the berm will clear the gun and if the RO is given a empty mag to put int the firearm it will of course lock the bolt back for show clear. Main thing is to be safe and have fun. he shoots from a chair but I do not recall how he handles reloads. Sorry

Alot of us just use a scabbard Amazon.com : VISM by NcStar Tactical Rifle Scabbard (CVRSCB2919G), Green : Gun Slings : Sports & Outdoors

It should be load enough just like the other short barrel/tubbed examples wiland, taccom etc the leading of threads (as mentioned above ) should be a concern though.

See you Sat!

Thanks JM that just might work

does anyone know of a SC match on 10/15 or 16 in San Antonio or at least South Texas area ( I know its Texas so of course it a large area )

Yes to both questions I hold USPSA RO cert w/ SC endorsement... I will never work or shoot a USPSA match again at 75 yrs of age. I have Roed the last 4 WSCS matches. My wife is not certified but has mentioned she would be if there was a SC only RO class.... most of the local Shooters I have talked to indicated that they too would be interested in a SC only class . Having SC certified RO's would be a nice improvement to State and Area matches IMHO

Yea I believe you could do it in a day.... not having to learn the complexities of USPSA scoring alone will save a large amount of time... should not need any time out on the range either... could all be done in the classroom a experienced SC RO could teach a certified class with a proper text book IMHO
