Watched it several times. I think close, but would not have called it.

New barrel at 85. Runs like a young puppy.

Simple question.

Never. The rulebook is officially digital now. Sarcasm.

When will they mail a printed copy?

I had one years ago from Western Arms.

Same here. Plated tumbled. A lot.

Lake Kississmee State Park is about 1/2 hour drive to the range. Beautiful park. Has worked for me many times.

This is how I knew it, too. Didn’t always designate, but someone always picked up your brass and handed it to you. Always. But, this was on hard packed clean dirt. It was easy to pick it up right away. I used to keep track of how many times I reloaded the same brass. Easy 6-8 times.

Fraudulent credit card attempted purchase at this non-existant company.

Light dog chains, longer than you ever need, along with the some carabiners, is easy and adjustable.

That would be hard to document as a GM in PCC is now M in everything else. However, USPSA already has the data to determine, for example, a B pistol shooter became an M just because of the rifle classification. That is, USPSA can investigate if they wanted to. Betting they won't.

It appears the comments are a resounding 'no'. Perhaps time to let it go.

Stop. Enough. Too many. Drop rifles.

Crashed multiple times during NROI test. Did not loose track of where I was, and eventually worked. I did have two sessions open, one for the test, one for the rulebook.

I have used readers for shooting for some time now. They are a full size, not half glasses. The front site is sharp, targets are a little blurred, but overall, it works quite well for me. Paper and steel both at usual uspsa distances are really not an issue due to blurring. Longer targets, say 30 yards, are a challenge, but I don't run into them often. The sharp front sight makes a big difference.

At a nationals a few years ago the first place Master was in the top 16. He did not get the trophy for first master because he was in the top 16. The second place master was awarded the first place trophy. That just didn't seem right, so maybe it's better without the top 16 thing.

Back to the topic... don't smoke on the stage.

Looking forward to a slingshot division. Would have to be limited, given the sights.

You really read all of this? Wow.

There are entirely different skill sets involved between a pistol and a rifle. That is pretty obvious. To combine the classification process in any way does nothing but a disservice to the sport. Rifles do not belong here. I'm sure it is fun, but rifles really need to go to a completly separate match. The experiment is a failure.

I said the timer is pointed at the scorekeeper, and that is all. There is no verbal announcement of the time. I am also a CRO, and I also point the timer to the scorekeeper while clearing the shooter. However, the shooter shouldn't have to ask for the time. I'm fully aware of the rules. They are not at all being followed in the scenario I described.

I have noticed scoring procedures changing at local matches, and wonder if others have any input. My experience has been that after the RO calls "range is clear", they would immediately call out the time for all to hear. They would then go to each target and call out the hits. The scorekeeper would repeat back the call so that there was no misunderstanding. The rest of the squad would be following the RO taping and resetting. What I have noticed on an increasing basis is that the scorekeeper is scoring targets as the stage is being shot. The RO may become involved on a few targets. Often, other shooters are scoring targets. The scorekeeper has paid no attention to the shooter during shooting. Often, and this is really annoying, the RO doesn't call out the time, they simply point the timer towards the scorekeeper. Really? I have to ask for the time? The shooter has no clue as to the hits on each target as it has mostly been done quietly. Seems like the scoring is an important part of the game. I guess the reason for all of this haste is to make the stage go faster, but the time is in resetting, not scoring. Besides, the scorekeeper really is ignoring their safety and scoring responsibilities while the stage is being shot. So is this just non trained RO's, or is this the way scoring is done now?
