    I use 9.1.4 and combine it with the KISS principle. IF I can score accurately I do. If I CAN'T, reshoot.

     

    What if you were the shooter and the RO cited 9.1.4 and required you to reshoot because they couldn't accurately score target?

    9.1.4 does mention a questionable penalty hit...
    now if you can say it went through a scoring target and then hit the no shoot... 9.1.5.1 applies.
    . . .
     

     

     

    I'm interpreting "If there are extra scoring hits or questionable penalty hits thereon " hits in 9.1.4 to mean extra hit penalties.  If meant to mean no-shoot penalties it's very poorly worded.

    So if there can’t be a shoot thru from scoring to penalty targets, then someone got a
    Gift.. meaning this was an unpatched target..
     

     

    We considered this angle (get it?) and couldn't line up the two holes at all.  And Angolina Jolie wasn't the shooter.

    A previous shooter definitely got a gift.  I'm just trying to reconcile the incident with the rules.

    If the RO is CERTAIN there is no way he shot the no shoot then score targets without the no shoot as it’s likely it belonged to the previous shooter. 

      If RO IS CERTAIN it belongs to the shooter being scored the look for scoring hits without a grease ring. That will be the one that passed through the no shoot.

     

     

    The only things that were certain in this scenario is competitor fired only two rounds at every target and no shots passed through a no-shoot and onto target.

    The shooter took no extra shots and there is no way a shot hit the no shoot and a scoring target.

    The no shoot also could not have been as a shoot thru from any other target.

    So what you have is an unaccounted for hole, that this shooter could not have made.
     

     

    Correct on all points.  I have to think this is an oversight but nowhere does 9.1.4 mention no-shoots. 

  5. Local match, long course, shooter completes course and scoring begins.  One target has two alpha's and nearby no-shoot (not in direct contact with target) has one full diameter hit.  How should target be scored?  Reshoot?  Please cite rules if possible.

    It is not disputed that competitor took only two shots at every target and bullet impacting no-shoot could not have continued on to hit a scoring target.

    Not a problem......so everyone thinks that the hot thing about the ESSB is the cross cut for LRBHO. However, I will submit that the really hot thing about the ESSB is the cocking ramp for the hammer. I did a lot of development at another company for what is probably one the most reliable 22RF uppers on the market today and that bolt, does not have a feed ramp......it has a radius to the flat on the bottom.....what that does is allows for the hammer to completely cock sooner and in the case of the 9mm AR......allows for even a shorter stroke than any other bolt on the market today. Try to shorten the stroke of any bolt out there by 1"......you'll not reset the trigger. With the ESSB, you can.

    Do you feel there's a risk of beating up the hammer pin holes by cocking the hammer too aggressively due to the shorter ramp?  Or is that the cost of racing?

    I've got about 5000 rounds on my JP bolt/pin in the last few months with no problem.

     

    The pin in my JP bolt (appx 3 years old) recently broke somewhere around 2k rounds with only a handful of dry fire sessions.  I ordered a replacement plus a spare and later learned they redesigned the pin to reduce breakage.  We shall see!

  8. When are the stages torn down for this match? I would assume the day after? There is a mind boggling amount of props to be hauled and stored.

    They get torn down right after the arbitration period ends. Everything is taken down by the RO's at each stage and sorted and stacked at the stage and then a carts with trailers come that taken specific items back to storage. Usually finished before awards.

    Yep, I left range at 5pm and cruised by stages 3 & 4 and berms were bare. It was almost as sad as my performance. :blush:

  9. I was RO'ing at stage at the High Desert Classic that had a swinger head shot visible from another advantageous position. ...

    Based on 2.1.8.5, this sounds like an illegal stage. Was this never called?

    2.1.8.5 Appearing scoring targets must be designed and constructed to be obscured to the competitor (during the course of fire) prior to activation.
