  1. Consider the scenario I posted in which the shooter committed a procedural by inadvertently skipping the middle target in the first sweep. (compounded by the time factor for holstering the 1st revolver, then having to redraw and fire it to avoid the miss penalty) He then proceeded to commit multiple additional procedurals in an attempt to offset his error: The 2nd procedural violation was intentionally (by his own admission) ignoring the stage instructions and quickly dumping the next 5 rounds on the large middle target. The 3rd procedural violation was for doing so using a faster method than required for his category (two-handed instead of Duelist-style). IMO, the second and third "P" violations gave him a significant time advantage over any other shooters in the same category who committed a single "P" for engaging the targets "out of order" but who did NOT attempt to "make up the time for the first procedural".
  2. ROC Clarification docs have been updated: SASS Range Operations Committee Reload Choices (edited 31 Jan 2024) Penalties Overview (SHB 2024) 170 Degree Rule (Edited 31 Jan 2024) "What's the Call?" Q&A re: the WB mandate eliminating the MSV penalty for 'overloading' the rifle. (updated Feb 2024)
  3. Probably the actual barrel length. Measure it to confirm.
  4. Where do you think the majority of those modified weapons ended up when the users were discharged from service?
  5. READ some of the posts in the linked discussion.
  6. The difference between "slip & fall" vs "dropped" is whether the firearm was in CONTINUOUS MOTION once the shooter relinquished control of it. "Dropped firearm – a firearm that has left the shooter’s control and comes to rest at a location or position other than where it was intended." SHB p.42 A TO or spotter preventing a DROPPED firearm from ending up on the ground does NOT negate the SDQ for a "dropped unloaded firearm". ...and verbal COACHING to get a temporarily confused shooter back "on track" regarding target engagement is irrelevant to this discussion.
