The latest installment in the Quest for Master Class is online at Downrange.TV! In this week’s episode, I take a look at the bane of most IDPA shooter’s classifier scores: Stage 3. This stage is often “pass/fail” – not enough people practice shooting at 20+ yards to get really familiar with their competition/carry guns at this range. Coupled with the fact that IDPA as a rule is trending towards much closer targets at short ranges, this stage is where a lot of otherwise good IDPA shooters will fall apart. I know for a fact this stage gives me a mess of trouble; that’s actually why I spend a lot of my practice time shooting at 20 yards these days. The way I see it, if I can get a fast hit at 20 yards, I can get an even faster hit at 7.

If you do a tactical reload, not a retention realod, you can actually start to advance sooner on the 2nd string of fire…
With practice, you can actually shave a second or so off that string.
