I decided to shoot LO for Texas Open this last weekend and made a big mistake. When going to Chrono I was unaware of the fact it isn't JUST chrono. It is a gear check in general.
I didn't want to unload my mags for them to use so instead of using what was on my belt I asked my cousin to grab an empty from my bag. He pulled a training 170 and I handed it over. Straight to Open, do not pass go, you are shooting the wrong caliber.
Funny enough I ended up placing higher in Open minor than I would've in Limited Optics.
Lesson learned but I was real mad for most of the day after that and it effected my shooting.
