IdahoShooter Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 (edited) Ok, I see all sorts of times for classifiers in the other sport. But the Master level in IDPA can be a huge time variation. I'm sure we've all heard of Sevigny's sub 60 classifier, and seen Ben Stoger's youtube of his sub 60 run of the classifier. But where are you at? Or is it a question that anyone wants to know? My last run was 91.36 (CDP) (eek, just barely) My next goal is to shoot it in 80 or less, and then whack another 10 off and see how long it takes to get there.

Duane Thomas Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Last night I did a 93.94 with a Glock 19. Just need to chop about another four seconds to get my ESP Master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemoe83 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Classified as SSP Master on Sunday with a 94.58, I could have shaved 3 seconds off that time, forgot to reload and reengage on the string that has you shoot targets one round each reload one round each. Only the second time I've shot the classifier. If you set the stages and practiced 80 seconds doesn't seem to impossible. I'm only a B class uspsa shooter, I imagine a GM who practiced it like they do the Steel Challenge could tear it up. I remember a post that someone said they shot like 500 rounds on the classifier in practice a week for one month and cut 13 to 14 seconds off of his time.

Duane Thomas Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I could have shaved 3 seconds off that time, forgot to reload and reengage on the string that has you shoot targets one round each reload one round each. Wouldn't that be 10.5 seconds? A 3 second procedural, and 7.5 seconds (15 points) in dropped points for the three shots not fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice shooting Brian! Looks like you've been putting in some hard work with good results. The rest of us are going to have to practice more to keep up with you! -Evans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Koski Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 My two best are a 92 and a 95. I would have to get real lucky to shave 10 seconds off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gb32 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Last one I shot was an 80.something. That was with concealement. Best without is a 75. Gary Byerly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvb Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I looked it up in my notes.... haven't shot the classifier in about 3 years, since just before the '07 idpa Nats. but last time was 87.0x. Made ESP MA w/ my SSP rig. Had two minor jams on the slide-lock reloads (didn't go completely to battery, so had to hit the back of the slide). Was down 26 points. realized shortly after my FS had drifted in the dovetail. Been thinking about going to a classifier this summer or fall to see if I could now get near 70. -rvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanky Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Does anyone have a list of what the classifier entails? There are no sanctioned clubs locally but Id be interested to know the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvb Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Does anyone have a list of what the classifier entails? There are no sanctioned clubs locally but Id be interested to know the details. idpa.com has the rulebook. classifier description starts on pg 66. -rvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sac Law Man Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 My best is 84 seconds, but I was practicing it alot. For me its all about stage 3. If i can shoot each string of stage 3 in 13 (+-) seconds with less than 10 points down total on stage 3 im good. My goal now is to break 80 seconds..

mike4045 Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I made it last weekend with a 98.6. Barely in there. I dropped alot points, but the speed was there. I am a lowly B class shooter in USPSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve J Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 97.36 this morning in CDP with big-boy bullets. Not enough for master though. That's 91.76 in CDP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 (edited) Missed two heads, dropped crazy points on stage three. I know I could go back and shoot an ESP/MA classifier now, probably with a good bit of breathing room.

Steve Koski Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Nice vid MM! Lefties should have to add 2 seconds to classifier times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strick Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Shot a .45 for the first time in a few months in the classifier and shot it in 90.09 to make MA. That was with 2 misses. That is the best run so far but I pretty sure I would be much faster with my ESP rig. Here is a 97 second run with a XDm from feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shooterready Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 SSP, 82s and some change was my best back in '05 with my G34. Haven't run it in forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filishooter Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Shot 88.25 with 26 points down last weekend. Stage 1 24.94 (3 down) Stage 2 22.88 (7 down) Stage 3 40.43 (16 down) Almost lost it on stage 3 but just made ESP time.

Bones Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Mr. Byerly was being modest - what he did not say was he shot it all SHO. My best revolver time was a 77.50 in SSR without concealment 82.09 with concealment, both with a Model 67. My best semi-auto time is 77.34 without concelament (ESP - M&P Pro) and 81.34 with concealment (SSP - PC 5906). My best CDP time is 83.76 using a 945.

lugnut Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 My best run was a couple months ago. 89.56s with my ESP G34 which is basically my SSP gun with a metal GR. It was a tear jerker for me as I just missed ESP MA. My runs have been in the lower 90s this year. Those extra few secs are tough. I'm a B level USPSA shooter.

gb32 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Craig, let's not get carried away here. While I'll admit to being an above average SH shooter, that score may be outside of my current capabilities. I shoot several classifiers a year typically right before a major IDPA match. It's a good test of 90% of what I expect to see in a match. For you Craig, I will shoot it SHO and post my results here.
