Dragoon Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 With all this talk of revolver RWR, I decided that it was a good thing to practice yesterday at the weekly Sunday practice session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SauconValley Shooter Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 With all this talk of revolver RWR, I decided that it was a good thing to practice yesterday at the weekly Sunday practice session. Good Evening, I was inspired to do the same thing on Saturday at the Phillipsburg IDPA match. It was one of my stages. Start in a dark room arms length from two threats with a non-threat covering both. On the start, engage in tac sequence while retreating through the open doorway. Then there were two targets to "pie" on a left corner and three targets to "pie" on a right corner on the other side of the doorway. So, I did a tac reload when at the left corner and again before moving to the right corner. I did the "whole mess" into my pocket for the first and did drop the live rounds, eject the rest on my second tac reload. It worked out pretty well. Josh L just reloaded when empty (after the first left corner target and after the second right corner target) and was about 3 seconds faster. Of course Josh may have been faster even if I was using an eight shot (I know, not legal for IDPA) revolver! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) As I earlier posted, I am not against having to retain unspent ammunition, but I have never had to in the past. Likely it was because, as you mentioned, that the RWR was after 6 shots had been fired. Thus there was no need to retain anything as a revolver shooter. After thinking about it, I don't plan to put much time into practicing retaining unspent rounds. I will deal with the situation if it arises at a match.
