General Principles:

Steel Challenge scoring is simple: your time is your score!
Each stage consists of five targets, commonly referred to as plates. Four are standard plates, and the fifth is designated as the stop plate.
Each of the standard targets must be hit at least once before hitting the stop plate, and the time stops when the stop plate is hit. Competitors may fire as many rounds as they deem necessary for each string of fire. The worst string on each stage will be thrown out, and the total of the remaining times will be competitor’s score for that stage. All stages will be shot five times with the exception of "Outer Limits" which will be shot four times.
The maximum time allowed for an individual string is 30 seconds.

***NOTE***

*HSC is a COLD RANGE: All firearms will be kept UNLOADED except on the firing line under the direct supervision of a Match Officials.
*Gun handling at Safe tables only and must be brought to the firing line in a holster or case.
*Eye and ear protection is required for all shooters and spectators.
*Holsters: In general, holsters shall be mounted in the general vicinity of the waist, must cover the trigger, and must safely hold/retain the gun. All Centerfire handguns must be appropriate for holster use.
*HSC will allow "Low Ready" starts for Centerfire handguns (2 seconds added per run)
*Rimfire competition does not involve the use of a holster
*Each competitor is expected to come to the firing line ready to shoot, with an appropriate amount of ammunition in an appropriate number of magazines or speed-loaders or other loading devices.
*Minimum cartridge for centerfire competitions (38 Special, 9X19).
*Rimfire firearms must be .22 Long Rifle (.22LR) only
*Any ammunition deemed unsafe or likely to damage the targets will be removed from use
*Any standard plate which has not been hit before the stop plate will count as a Miss. Each Miss on a standard plate will result in a 3 (three) second penalty, added to the shooter’s time for that string.
*If the stop plate is not hit, the score for that string is 30 seconds

Thanks Harvard for welcoming in my youngest son and getting him through the match. We all had tons of fun as always even without "uncle" point blank.
 
My second gun was Rimfire Pistol Open but was listed as Production so Sean won Production. Great match, but things were a little quiet. Where was Frank?
 
Another great match!....and no rain!.. Thanks to Paul, Mike, the RO's and all at Harvard for a fun day,
 
"Point Blank" Frank was in Bermuda with the family celebrating four (4) birthdays and our anniversary! We were staying at The Fairmont Southampton (daughter Karen's hotel) and had a great time -- I don't think I even thought of all y'all the entire weekend. Oh yeah, I did actually -- had several Dark 'n Stormies on the beach for you!

TTFN,
F.
:cool:

Thanks, Frank. I actually had a pretty good day without you to harass me.
 
Just an update.
Many competitors have been requesting that the scores get posted to Steel Challenge (USPSA) website.
Thanks to Michael Eisenhower and some software updates the results for this season will be submitted.
If you are a USPSA member these results will go towards a classification in Steel Challenge.
I have heard the the Classification system will be changing in the near future and will include other Divisions like Rimfire.

You can see results posted from May's match here:

if you are a USPSA member - be sure Michael has your USPSA number
