NEW USPSA multi-gun rules

[jkmccoy]

Kevin,

Yes and no and sort-of...The RO is NOT required to determine/watch which targets are shot with which weapon. It is quite easy to distinguish 9mm holes in paper targets from .30 caliber holes. We haven't had anyone try to use 00 buck on paper targets, might need to address that in stage descriptions in the future. If someone shows up with a .35 caliber rifle at minor power factor (or with a .35 caliber rifle in major with a 9mm minor pistol) we will have to work out some additional processes.

The scoresheets we use to for these multi-gun stages have separate columns for rifle/pistol/shotgun hits. In practice it is always just two columns (and then steel or frangible targets for the third gun). If a shooter shoots a paper target with two different guns it is possible that hits would appear in two different columns (always giving the shooter the best possible score). That is, a shooter engages a paper target with his (minor power factor) rifle and gets two C's then re-engages the target with his (major power factor) pistol and gets another C. That target would be scored as one rifle C and one pistol C (7 points for that target).

Our experience is that it really isn't a problem to get the hits recorded properly on the scoresheets. The trick is in getting WinEZScore to calculate the correct number of points. BUT - both are possible. I just don't want our stage design to be limited because some juggling in WinEZScore is required.

Cheers,

I wholeheartedly agree.
