    Action Pistol Match List

    in NRA - Bianchi Cup

    Posted

    We held 2 years worth of monthly matches here in Ada ,Ok.

    We had several USPSA shooters show up to a match or two never to return.

    We made sure everyone won something.We changed the days from Sat. to Sunday.

    I listened to the shooters and tried to make them happy. We went from 20 shooters to 10 to about 5.

    I have a good friend thats a Master USPSA shooter that shoots all the matches in Ok.

    I asked him what the problem was . Answer: Not enough rounds shot, Very hard match!

    IE. small 10 ring to much shooting at 50 yards. Ect,ECT, ECT.

    These were USPSA,Grandmasters and Masters. Bottom line turned out to be they could not win so they quit.

    The funny thing was these big time shooters had their little groups that followed them to the matches and they were doing pretty well. But when they were told that Action Pistol

    wouldn't help their USPSA shooting they quit.

    The IDPA guys were even there,but shots at 50 and 25 yards aren't very tactical so they quit.

    So now we shoot steel. They all seem to like steel. Well some like steel but at least they show up.

    Stop Plate Rules

    in Steel Challenge

    Posted

    I shot a Steel Challenge match this weekend .The director was trying to find out if you fire more than one shot at the stop plate which one to count. For the past year your score was the amount of time for the shots fired. All shots fired. We looked at the rule book and it doesn't address this issue.

    The problem was this wasn't brought up until after the match. 1 squad shot it counting all shots fired .The other squad which was the match director's squad counted the 1st shot hitting the stop plate. He told me that someone in the squad had told him it was the correct way of scoring.

    The weird thing was the people that usually win didn't. All of them were in the squad that counted every shot fired.

    Does anyone know the right way ? Is it in the rule book?

    Why would it make a such a differance in scoring ? The winners are all about .88 sec.

    apart down to about 3rd place.

    Thanks
