[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2689537, member: 5412"] Steel challenge doesn't require movement around a stage like USPSA. Its a speed shoot. Steel plates are set up and painted to make sure you see where/if shots hit. .22 rimfire pistol is what most competitors use, but centerfire pistols are allowed as well. Slightly different rules if using a center fire. If shooting a .22 rimfire pistol, you have the gun drawn and at the ready position pointed at a flag 12' in front of the firing line. At the beep of the timer, you shoot/ring the steel plates as fast as you can. There is one plate designated as the "stop plate". Its the last plate to shoot and will stop the time. There is also a .22 rimfire rifle division. Bring out the 10-22 and a couple of mags and your good to play with that as well. I always enter both divisions, rifle and pistol. Starting this month, new rules at steel challenge will allow pistol caliber carbine rifles at the matches, so if you have a 9mm-whatever, its OK. Magnum carbines are not allowed. Centerfire pistol shooters start at the "surrender" position with hands held up at shoulder level, drawing from a holster. Steel Challenge with its lack of movement is a great competition for everybody. Teaches you how to rapidly acquire targets, check reliability of your pistol/rifle and is a friendly match for folks that have movement issues, youngsters, etc. We have a Wheel Chair occupant that shoots the Ponca City Steel Challenge that has no legs. He is nowhere in the back of the pack when the scores come out. :D [/QUOTE]
