[QUOTE="mmchambers06, post: 1260814, member: 4445"] From my little experience, I'll just say that it all depends...on the stage, on the level of competition, & on you the shooter. Since hit factor = points / time, it may be advantageous to shoot quick Charlies over Alphas..Speed is especially critical on those stages that are really short since hit factor is simply a ratio. The scoring is very intriguing. Look at how some open class shooters score with hit factor (especially w/ minor power factor) and you'll see what I mean. But honestly...focus on being smooth, picking up your front sight and getting your hits. [B]The biggest stumbling block you will hit is trying to go fast.[/B] It's a wall I ran into big time the last couple of weeks and it's frustrating. I'll give you an example...two weeks ago I managed to finish first on one stage and dead last the very next. Now I have to take a step back from where I thought I was and focus on the fundamentals. You have to master the basics before you can get speedy with it. Disclaimer once more...I'm a rookie. :gun2: [/QUOTE]
