pskys2 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Just curious how many Divisions do you regularly compete in? Do you practice all that you shoot? Do you feel it helps or hinders you to shoot multiple Divisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underwood Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) PCC and Open thats also what i shoot in USPSA Edited October 18, 2018 by Underwood edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 After spending all that money on an OPEN gun, I'll be damned if I'm going to shoot anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racinready300ex Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) I picked "I choose one and stick with it", but that's not entirely accurate. I'll switch divisions, but I'll do it over the winter when I'm not shooting and only dry firing. Once I pick a division I'll stick with it for the year, then about this time next year I'll decide what I'm doing the following year. And dry fire that division over the winter, by the first match I'll be ready to go in the new division. Edit, I just realized this was in the SC section. No one shoots one division in SC do they? Disregard my comment above. Edited October 19, 2018 by Racinready300ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stango424 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) I regularly shoot Open, CO, PCC, RFRO. and RFPO. Will sometimes throw in the iron sight divisions. I rotate each through out the year because we shoot a 4 stage match twice a week for 26 weeks straight every year. I do buckle down for a few weeks on my more important divisions when WSSC and larger matches come about. Changing it up helps keep it interesting for me. I only really setup and practice RFRO, PCC, and OPEN outside of the weekly matches. I don't believe it helps or hinders me to shoot this many different guns throughout the year.

Scootertheshooter Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I’m all over the freakin map because I want to play . PCCO,RFRO,RFRI,RFPO,RFPI have but haven’t competed in PCCI yet. I’m a messSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZackJones Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Primary divisions are PCCO and RFRO. I shoot some RFPO, Open and PCCI. I don’t practice like I should so I guess that’s why I’ve yet to make GM. I am classified in 11 of 13 divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disregard my comment above. Heck that's one of my troubles right now in USPSA I can't make a decision on which Division to shoot. If it's not Revolver then I keep drifting from one to another! Maybe that's why I only shot SC worth a darn this year? And not much of that even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip Dedmon Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I like four divisions, Open, RFPO. RFFO & PCCO. It would be hard to shoot the four divisions at a one day local match so what I am going to do in 2019 is shoot Open & RFPO at a local match on the 2nd. Saturday that does not allow long guns (all of you know where that is) and RFRO & PCCO on the 3rd. Saturday at a club that allows all divisions.

Thomas H Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I tend to pick one division and shoot it in local SC matches for a year, then the next year I pick a different one. In major SC matches I shoot as many divisions as I can, so normally four or six divisions. For my one division for the year when I am shooting centerfire, I shoot whatever division I'm shooting in USPSA that year. If that year's SC gun is a rimfire or PCC, I pick whatever I don't have a GM classification in yet. (Next year, for example, will be CO for most matches, with a little of SS, Production, RFPO, RFRO, PCCO, and RFPI thrown in during larger matches, or for an occasional local match.) The following year I may head back to Production, which is where I belong. I don't have a classification in RFRI or PCCI, and I'm not sure if I ever will for RFRI. (I don't have a rimfire rifle that only has iron sights at the moment.) Sometime, maybe. I do have an extra upper for my PCC that has a removable optic and some good visible iron sights, so sometime I might try that just for humor's sake. I doubt I'll ever shoot either revolver division, and probably not Open until I get an open gun, which won't be for a long, long time. I could borrow my wife's Open gun, but I'd want to practice with it first, and my practice time is currently spent on whatever CF division I'm shooting in USPSA. (Last year it was PCC, this year it is SS, and next year will be CO. Prior to all that I was Production for years.) In general, obviously, I like shooting multiple divisions in SC. It is fun to change things up. (This is the opposite of USPSA for me, where I focus on one gun for at least a year at a time, if not for multiple years.)

jkrispies Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I find that with rifle I can shoot them pretty interchangeably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911luvr Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Right now I’m classified in RFRO, RFPO, PCCO and CO, but I hope to add PCCI, RFRI and Open soon. I’m almost done with my M&P open pistol, so I’ll be shooting it in USPSA too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pskys2 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 I'm classified in Open (with a dot sighted 6 shot revolver for fun at the 2015 Free State, didn't do too bad in place but time were slow for open it was funny used a 45 acp with 185 swc @680f/s would be halfway through a run before the first steel rang!), Ltd, CO, Prod, ISR, OSR, RFPI. So next match will be SS (just picked up a Taylor 1911 in 9mm it shoots great) and RFPO (put a venom 6 dot on a m22a). Don't have any 22 rifles to use or PCC's.

JohnnyD Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 This was my first year shooting Steel Challenge as there is only one local match to me (thankfully my own club). There is a morning and afternoon session and I shoot both. I shot RFRO and PCCO all season. I was shooting PCC in USPSA this year so that was an obvious choice. Next year I might switch one out for Production if I end up picking a Shadow 2 like I am thinking of. I like the cheap cost of rimfire and less reloading to do but we'll see. Currently sitting at an A in RFRO and B in PCCO with one match left on the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFL Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Picked 2-4 RF/CF but I’m classified in 5. RFPO regularly, RFRO and PROD occasionally, OPEN and CO once each, but I’ll shoot them again. I don't like to shoot multiple divisions at the same time, but as long as one of them is the rifle, I don’t think it hinders me too much. I will not shoot RFPO and PROD at the same time, because it hurts me on both guns. I’ll only do both in the same match if it’s an AM/PM schedule or multi-day match. Then I feel like I do ok.

Revofan Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I should shoot 1-2 division so I can get really good with those but I’m just like scooter I shoot em all and have a great time I’m not supreme at any of them but I hold my own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggulp Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I run PCCO and something else. This past season, that "something else" was RFPO, Open, and Limited. This coming year, I'll run PCCO and RFRO exclusively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1911 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Limited RFPO RFRO PCC just depends on what I feel like shooting that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darby10 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I used to shoot limited, pcc, and production, until I tried carry optics. Plan on just shooting c/o until I can afford an open gun in a year or so. The only advantage I see in shooting 2 divisions in local match is you get a better feel of the course for your second run.

firewood Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 This year OSR and ISR. I usually shoot both at any SCSA match I enter but every time I pull the lever on ISR I ask myself why? I guess it really doesn't hurt but I would like to become proficient in just 1 gun first so my gut tells me to just concentrate on one but my impulses usually overrule. Now that the big matches for the year are over, I would actually like to try open rimfire pistol and I think I'm going to soon just to see what happens although I think I already know how that will go. I'm going to shoot open rimfire rifle, I've only shot the gun twice in the past, at a local for fun match this weekend but I really don't see that becoming a habit.

lawboy Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 RFRO/RFPO. I love the rimfire guns. They are the coolest and they are the fastest. Every time I try to shoot something else, I can't bring myself to leave the 22s at home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealsack Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Rifle optic (PCC or RFRO) and a pistol. I tried to shoot Limited and CO at the same match and it did NOT go well. Plus I don't have to carry and switch two belts at each stage. I haven't tried to shoot CO and RFPO together, I may have to give that a try this winter. I sure wish we had SC to shoot every week instead of 3 stages once a month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
