Also would be interesting to know the barrel length the ammo was tested in I do not. That's why I am not passing judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a report that the ammo did not make the cutoff. if you want to dis credit it, you should do so. I make a statement that is a proper response to that infraction. I happen to know a light power round is easier to run at speed. and there is a reason for the power floor. it is also called a clear competitive advantage when you do not meet that specification. the appearance is attempting to get close to a fail edge much like an under weight race car. we know why it happened. miranda I challenged you to show the three shot average velocity of the certified ammo control sample used at Nationals to judge Max Michel's ammo sample. This is required by the USPSA Rules Appendix C3, which you clearly either can't understand or are ignoring. You have not been able to show the data from that control sample. You have nothing. We are done here. Edited September 13, 2022 by Johnny_Chimpo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 That data should be posted by USPSA, has anyone asked them to provide it? I presume the chrono crew would be the ones to have done the certification at the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Who is asking about records, accountability and transparency in regards to uspsa? That is the best laugh I've had in days. Is ammo and chrono a place where people try to cheat? Definitely! But as long as all the procedures were followed this is nothing. (Unlike all the times I've seen people actually cheat.)

motosapiens Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I would have lol'd if max had shot for no score, but this is not the first time that certified ammo has come up short. Everyone who reloads has probably experienced variability in chrono results with different guns, even of the same brand and model. Some barrels are just faster than others. If i were max, I'd be less worried about so-called cheating, and more worried about getting popper-f*ked. Shooting subminor ammo is kind of being dressed like you want it with respect to f**-ing from poppers. I'd probably be doing a little chrono work with my guns and the sig ammo to make sure I can reliably knock steel down when it matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I joked to my RO's that they probably needed to set them extra light so max's ammo would knock them over. JJ overheard that and laughed harder than anyone. Everyone's ammo was hot enough to get all the way through the paper targets on my side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are done here. I see. you have not a clue and are upset that someone else could make a lucid comment. your posts have me thinking you have taken the report personally. It case it was not clear, I have come to trust the comments here on this forum and I didn't feel the need to state 'the alledged infraction' because I was pointing out a way to prevent or discourage that action. it does not matter exactly how true the report happens to be for my comment to be valid. to kick this a little further ... I raced Karts for a time. the performance of a kart is a direct line to weight, so there are weight limits. to get close to that limit you needed to go get on the scales. "perspiration" has caused some DQs, it is that close. I do not claim cheating there or here. If you are willing to flirt with an infraction you had better be ready to accept being on the wrong side of the rules we have agreed are fair. miranda Edited September 13, 2022 by Miranda left a phrase dangling...

It's probably noted there but we can't see it on the app or the internet page. If any of you think this was cheating it's hilarious. The rules are there to be used amd pushed. Get over it. If you want to have the same cushion at chrono buy certified ammo, and declare it when you register at the match. Pretty simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
