They shoot timed against 5 plates.

The 1911 class they will shoot next year is why they should use the 1911 in .22 this year, so that the way you clear a malfunction is the same. Mine will shoot less than 1" at 25 yards but they shoot 25 to 75 feet. What they need is a mag that will feed properly. One mag is almost dead reliable and can fire all 10 at 8" plates in 2.03 seconds, so I know it can run fast enough for them. I am sure if the FCW will push the round to the feed ramp we should be golden.

They do have a team pistol with irons and a team with a reflex, but I don't know any .22 semi-auto that runs 100% in a competition like this. 98%, sure but that is why you get a mulligan if it is the ammo or weapons fault.

Here is one of the stages: V for V. Iron sights on rifle here.
