Flatland Shooter Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) The minimum cartridge case dimension for handguns to be used in USPSA matches is 9x19 mm. The minimum bullet diameter is 9 mm (.354 inches) {Rule 5.1.2} Refer to D1 through D6 in the 2014 Handgun Rules for Division specific requirements.

JAFO Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Minimum calibers and power factors are listed for each Division in the Appendix D section of the rulebook. https://uspsa.org/viewer/pdf/Feb_2014_Handgun_Rules.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, 357Sig is the minimum caliber allowed for Major PF in Limited and L10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hnemes Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 I wonder if someone has ever shot a ar match with a 300 win mag ar10. That would be ridiculously expensive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanb Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 They’d be buying an awful lot of steel if they did it. Pretty sure it’s not a pistol caliber either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
