I know it is hard to see, but they are often close but ok, I posted on Dave Sevigny doing a move on my range, that would have DQ'ed him in a heart beat due to a photo here on Pauls blog, got brow beat, about trying to DQ Dave from long distance, and this is one of my biggest and strongest bitches with USPSA, the picture clearly showed Dave reloading, not unsafely, finger off the trigger and just right, but with the muzzle pointing over the berm, not 180, but that means a round gets out, what's on the other side? At my range, north 1200 yards is a trailer park, anything bigger than .44 mag could reach it, we have gone to great expense to raise our not now berms but concrete walls to 24' high, but the rebuttal I got back at that time, was, USPSA rules, if you don't break the 180 in any direction, your cool, well not at my range, and we hosted the 1986 nationals, Uspsa, believes once they are on YOUR range, your under their rules. That is why they are not welcome at any range within a hundred miles of my home club. I understand that most Uspsa clubs are not as arrogant as our group, but the rebuttal's I got make me think differently. Just quote the rule book, but the rule book states, " the range master will walk the stages and look and adjust for range conditions and design, and make adjustments accordingly, now Paul did say they had like a 7 mile drop zone, that is cool, but not our situation, sometimes you have to make adjustments, having a match in a mud pool has it's probs, maybe we should not shoot today, it sucks, but better than a shooter slipping and having an AD, toward who knows where.
Provided, video, just watch the muzzle when the mag is inserted. He has gotten better, and is a world class shooter, but at my range, would have to call him down, in his muzzle left reload, there is a soccer field to our left, 200 yards, got to do it. It would have gone over most berms, not that it would have ended up with an AD, but Uspsa is an organization, we are a land owning club, we lose, not Uspsa. They just go lookihg for a new place to shoot or hustle.
