Quick Indoor Stage Video

This a quick stage from one of our recent indoor matches. The stage required you to engage the 4 paper, reload before you engaged one of the steel, then engage the paper again, then reload again before engaging the remaining steel. I figure that it would be faster to take a procedural then to do the 2nd Reload

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

can't see the video at work but how many steel after reload, because that is the number of procedural penalties you would acquire.

Just 1 steel at the end

That looks like a pretty high HF stage. Say someone shot 90 points in 6 seconds, that is 15HF. If you shot it a second quicker without the last reload 75/5 = 15HF. Same HF, so the question becomes, can you reload faster than a second to get a higher HF?

If the start required wrists above shoulders, I would not have started you.

Having your hands an inch or two higher will have very little effect on your draw. Going to a match, and having the RO make you change the position you have been practicing, might mess with your head.

80/7 = 11.4 Assume all points minus 1 procedural, skip reload, approx 7 seconds (time from vid)

90/7.9 = 11.4 You would have to smoke the reload to make it worth doing

70/7 = 10 If you are not shooting all A's, eating the procedural takes a bigger bite out of your points.

80/8 = 10

At a club level match, I would do the reload even if it cost me a little. If I had something at stake, like money, I would do what ever is legal that would maximize my hit factor.
