Anybody come up with an example of how to load your mags for the new classifier? 

Seems to be mostly a down load to six...., just wondering if there are any mag load tricks like we use to do for the old classifier to speed up the strings.

Mark, there is not much room for gaming the new classifier. Like you said, the first mag on the strings that require a reload have to be loaded to six for the slide lock reload. 

The only advice I would offer is just make sure your second mag for the reload has a few more than six in case of a malfunction.

Not talking about gaming the classifier....., just asking if anybody had figured out an efficient way to pre-load mags for the new classifier.

For more years than I care to admit shooting and SOing the old classifier we used to pre-load our mags to help speed up the strings.  As an example, for the old Stage 1 we would load MAG#1 to 9 rounds, MAG #2 to 12 rounds and MAG#3 to 9 rounds.  This allowed folks with only 3 mags to shoot the entire stage without having to upload/download.  

Those old mag loads are now all obsolete with the new classifier.  I was asking if anybody had come up with another smart way to pre-load mags.  Perhaps the TAP guys have figured out something since they have run the new classifier.  

UPDATE - Came up with a mag load per stage plan.  The math stuff is HARD!!!!!
