NROI Podcast

In this episode, the team discusses some of the basics of calibration firearms for RMs at matches, what to do when a competitor arrives at the line with a magazine in the gun, modifying SCSA stages to fit local bays, changing divisions for competitors in SCSA whose firearm does not fit their declared division, limited optics in SCSA, scoring partial bullet hits in cardboard targets, more discussion on "aiming" related to last episode, why the "finger" rule exists and the consequences of not having it, getting credit with NROI for other types of RO certification, classifier diagram discrepancies between Practiscore and USPSA sources, and some information that might be useful for the upcoming IPSC Nationals.
