What is the missing match/club? And do they do on-line registration?

If your account email does not match your registration email, matches will not be listed.

If your name was not deleted (not just withdrawn) from the match file, it will still show up in the search results. I think the search key for the website is the email address that you used when registering. If that matches your PS account email address, the results get counted. But I may be wrong on this so if you are really curious, contact support@practiscore.com or just wait for Eugene to pop up in this thread

Do a cross check using the Competitor app. My webpage number is 234 where competitor shows 240 for a name search. 232 for an email search and 189 for a USPSA number search.

From the Powder Valley FB page: (I really like these guys ) " Powder Valley PRIMERS!!! OK, now that I have your attention I'd like to share two phone calls I have received this week. Both phone calls were from ammo manufacturers who have a "surplus" of primers. Now, before you go all ape s... on some of the big name folks out there I'll let you know these aren't the big name folks. But, these folks have obviously been resourceful and got their hands on some domestic and foreign primers. In the first case the OEM had 4 million primers he was willing to part with at the amazing price of $0.17 per primer. The second OEM was willing to part with all 2.4 million primers he had for a price of $0.20 per primer. Honestly, we could have probably purchased them all and sold them all and made a profit. So, you ask "Why didn't you?" This answer is two fold (1) We would sell every dang one but at the same time be absolutely crucified by customers and the shooting community for "gouging". (2) I believe in the American spirit of capitalism. I admire these folks for being resourceful and sourcing these primers and trying to make a buck. However, I don't agree with how it's happening. I won't be the source of their profiteering. I'd rather just sell the minimal primers we're getting from the manufacturers themselves and be able to charge what I believe is a fair price. Now, don't get me wrong. If someone came to us at what we believe to be a fair price and I could keep the prices somewhat reasonable I'd do it in a heartbeat. But, not at those prices. But, I do ask for you guys to keep this in mind when you're seeing what you believe to be outrageous prices. Just because the retailer is selling at a high price doesn't mean they are gouging. Everyone in the industry is scrounging to find inventory to be able to sell. Sometimes we find the inventory and take a risk by buying it at a higher price just so we have something available to sell. Just wanted to throw out an example so you all can see what's going on. What you see is not always what is truly happening. "

Interesting. My USPSA classification cards didn't show revolver until 2000. At my start in 1998, it was only Open and Limited.

No, only IPSC. It was never adopted by USPSA. I remember this from shooting with JoJo Vidanes who shot modified and won some world championships. He just shot in Open locally and usually won.

The evolution was: No Divisions Open and Limited Open, Limited, L-10, Revo, Production Open, Limited, L-10, Revo, Production, Single Stack Open, Limited, L-10, Revo, Production, Single Stack, CO, PCC

3 Divisions?

Closed in favor of the earlier thread:

And yet another example of "they are not your squad, they are your audience". Funny stuff. RIP John...

FWIW, my PCC has about 8" of rifling before the comp. It takes me 5 grains to get to 1200 FPS. That is with a 115 gr Berrys bullet. I did try 4.5 and it was in the vicinity of 1100 FPS. Your 115 data seems reasonable. I never tried a heavier bullet.

Sure will. Unless something weird happens, the match is the second weekend in November. I advise you practice up on your Practiscore skills as the match is usually full in less than one minute!

I haven't heard anything yet but it should be soon. I (and others) usually post here when we know stuff about the match. Keep checking PS for the Desert Classic. Later, Chuck PS: the match is not a "sectional"

Yup, he seems to be enjoying himself. I met him at Piru more than 20 years ago. Nice guy!

I am not Jim but I did shoot the Steel Challenge at SWPL in Feb. Dalton shot also, as he does every month. He had a squad of folks from young to old. He shot limited. And I never saw him puke, even one time

It looks like we need to start a postal match

Yay!

Best take that up with the MD

I have seen up range starts changed to down range. Targets moved from one side of the bay to the other. Stuff happens. The only thing that I recall having studied and hoped it changed in recent matches is the damn 8.5" low port that Brian Nelson thought would be a good idea for the Magnus Cup. It didn't change.

Well done! And on that comma....

Is that a rule?

No problem. 2 things I always do when walking the stage is look behind big poppers for little poppers and make sure I know which are forward falling and which are rearward falling.

Practiscore has all steel set as hit for scoring. If there is a miss (standing plate/popper in your example) the RO would just tap the M button to add one mike. The steel "A"s would decrement accordingly. If the RO is sure that the plate was not shot at, he would also add a procedural. BTW: The penalty for a miss on steel is 2x the scoring value or -10 (rule 9.4.4.) Not shooting a steel is -20 points in penalties and the 5 that you left on the table. Not the best strategy for a stage win.
