Thomas H Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm looking to get classified in IDPA, and given that I have a chance to shoot the classifier twice this year at most (and I'd like to get classified in all divisions----just humor me ) I was curious: 1) If I shot a G21 in .45acp shooting major loads, could I classify simultaneously in SSP, ESP, and CDP if the G21 was SSP-legal? (Since the classifier doesn't actually require using all 10 rounds in the mag at any point in time, and I could just load 8 per mag?) 2) If I shot a S&W 686 using major loads and speed loaders, could I classify in SSR and ESR simultaneously, assuming that the revolver follows SSR build limitations? I know that doing the above puts me at a disadvantage with respect to classifying in various divisions. Not the point. I'm just curious----using the above methods, would it be possible to classify in all 5 divisions of IDPA by shooting only two classifiers? Far as I can tell from the rules, I think it is legal. Yes/no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strick Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The answer to both is yes, under the new rules that is allowed. Also you can load mags to whatever you want (except strings that start with a specified amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty Hamby Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) G21 and 686 will need to be making 165pf in both respectively. You probably already know that. Ouch! in the 686..... Edited February 4, 2014 by Ty Hamby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas H Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 G21 and 686 will need to be making 165pf in both respectively. You probably already know that. Ouch! in the 686..... Yep, like I said above---major loads in both cases. Oddly enough, 200 gr bullets out of the 686 making major aren't that bad. I just am bad at shooting revolvers---shooting major in them really doesn't make me that much worse. That's okay, though---I just want to get a classification in all divisions, just for fun.

Remember slow is fast on the revolvers, the extra time squeezing the trigger is made up on the target score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
