Yeah, the late great Col Cooper nixed that nonsense right out of the gate when he helped found IPSC (International Practical Shooting Conference) in the 1960's. He developed a "power factor" which, if your loads did not meet, ten ring hits only counted for eight points. Huge incentive to "make major".
The whole idea was, after all, "practical shooting". Real defensive loads in real defensive guns. It was a great idea. Then the gamesmen stepped in with their "race guns" and dangerously over loaded .38 Supers and ruined the whole thing, as they are wont to do.
