Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. Shot this one yesterday in production, ended up with a 10.15 HF even with a miss. I have a feeling this one is gonna eventually have a ridiculously high HF like can you count.
  2. I await your answerbut I thought that was the intent of the portion in the report that stated "This also means the restriction of one classifier per match without a special classifier is also removed. We hope this gives clubs more flexibility in their match design and helps clubs get new shooters classified faster." I run a classifier match every year. Being able to run multiple classifiers at monthly club matches will fix other issues we have had.
  3. It's called an "Executive Order." No need to bother the BOD with a rule change. Actually, this was voted on at the board meeting as part of the technology update topic. Since it's not a rule (even though it's in the rule book, it's not and never has been a rule--it's a policy printed there for informational purposes), this policy change does not require board approval. It has been approved, however. So I can run multiple classifiers in my club match this weekend and submit them?
  4. "Ending the Classifier Limit One major administrative change for 2014 is the elimination of the 12 per year limit on USPSA classifier score submissions. The development of the new activity credit system means there is no longer a need for this restriction and clubs may now submit as many classifiers as they like. This also means the restriction of one classifier per match without a special classifier is also removed. We hope this gives clubs more flexibility in their match design and helps clubs get new shooters classified faster." I would really like to know when this is going to take effect. The new rule book still shows the old rule on this.
  5. Stock Barrel. That load kept it around 815fps.
  6. I have used Bayou 160's in my Glock 34 for the past 3 years. In that time I have shot thousands of them. I love my load and I think its the best load for production I have developed so far. Its really a feeling thing...the 160's take the "push" recoil impulse that you get from 147's just a little further. Accuracy is no different from the 147's I have shot and I never had one tumble on me. My Load info: Bayou 160 Mixed Brass Federal SPP Primer 2.7 gr N320 Powder (I also use titegroup at 2.7gr in my practice load) 1.140 OAL
  7. I have now. I get that. I have zero experience running majors but I know stuff has to be done to make things run smooth. Problem is, it doesn't look like anything was staggered. It looks like they just removed 2 squads before the super squads.
  8. So tonight I got an email from USPSA that my squadding got updated. I go look and me, my buddies....my whole squad have been moved out of squad 19 and over to 33. I don't get it. My friends and I decided to squad in 19 because it was next to the mens super squad. I felt like it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to get to see all the greatest shooters in our sport shoot production at the same time. GM's who never shoot production are there. Why allow people to self squad if you are going to just move them around? This kinda pisses me off and takes away from my experience. If they needed that squad for something else, why wasn't it just locked to begin with? I don't ever gripe but with the way things have been going with this match....this was kinda the straw that broke the camels back for me.
  9. I think it will be too expensive for a lot of shooters. This match format will be too much for the normal "working man" shooter. It would be awesome to shoot a 30 stage world shoot type match but I think its just crossing the reality line for all but the top shooters in the sport.
  10. 06/15 - Production: 53pts in 6.84 7.74hf
  11. Awesome match. Awesome facility. I see this match just getting better and better with time. Thanks to the RO's and staff for all the hard work.
  12. Check out www.boomershooter.com Oklahoma based competitive shooting forum, lots of good local info there.
  13. Not lame at all, just no place for it in USPSA. It is called Rimfire Challenge, and there are some change in the works to make it a little more dynamic. We ran a "test" match Saturday and everyone really enjoyed it...kids, new shooters, veteran 3Guners, USPSA pistol shooters alike. Drifting off. I disagree. Rimfire is wildly popular in steel challenge and its what attracts all of our new shooters. Those people want to shoot uspsa but ALOT of them cannot justify the expense of it. They just cant find/afford ammo and are dont want to jump right into reloading (if they can find components). Also, this rimfire challenge is just another match that needs a day and staff to run it. A lot of ranges dont have the slot or staff to run another one, why not combine it with a match that is already running?
  14. forgot to add it chronoed at 1450fps avg
  15. I think I know what your talking about but will you explain what you mean by "major setback"
