Will the match be shot regardless of weather?

The Match Director will evaluate the weather situation on Friday and make a decision at that time. If it looks iffy, I would:

check the website

check here for info

call Dennis and ask him (phone number on IDPA website and GRGC website)

why the 20 round mag limit? sounds capricious.

[GaryXD]

We have had the 20 rounds in the mag rule since we started rifle matches in 2008. We do this for two reasons:

1. We really think reloading is a good skill to know.

2. We want a level playing field for everyone. 20rd mags are available for most modern semi-automatic rifles. I have been competing for decades and have seen lots of matches that the match directors have designed with their gear in mind so they can win. For instance, if I have 40rd magazines and design a stage with 34 rounds, I have a huge advantage over those that have 30rd mags since I wouldn't have to waste time reloading.
