IRB Rule C9

QLD recently had it's state championships and we had a tied score for 3rd place on the day (3 targets). We needed to apply Rule C9b.

Inside the front cover of the WBSF-SSAA Abbreviated Version Rulebook for Rimfire Competition is a table of rule adaptations for SSAA events. Rule C9 says 'Grand aggregate ties to be decided by 'count-back' not shoot off. (Actual sequence to be advised).

Our protest committee got together and voted to adopt the Hunter class tie break method for that shoot.

So now we need to decide through the committee what is the official tie break process going to be for places that will be awarded medals. Then add it to the rulebook so everyone knows what the process is..

Count back method in IRB

What are you suggesting Annie?

That we lift the section completely from the Hunter section for IRB?
A tidier way as IRB will be in the same rule book is consider the option of placing a clause in the IRB section for the countback of tied scores and simply refer to the clause number for the Hunter section in the BR rule book.
Cheers

Tied scores

I suppose what I am asking is, do all the members on the committee feel that this should be the best solution. Or is there a better suggestion for a countback procedure?
If everyone agrees with the Hunter class solution, then lets add it to the inside cover of the WBSF-SSAA rulebook (or at least mention the Section number of the new rulebook that covers it)

IRB Rule E12.2

Crossfires.
This was another rule that got put to the test at our State Champs.
One shooter crossfired all 25 shots onto an empty target on the next bench.

Our scoring committee found the section on crossfire penalties a little ambiguous
E12.2 The target of the cross-fired shooter will be penalised 5 points.

Now, the point of contention is what do they really mean when they refer to 'target'? Is it one of the scoring bulls (which elsewhere is referred to as a 'target') OR do they mean the whole card which has 25 roundels on it?
We ended up applying a 5 point penalty to the whole target. But this really is a mild penalty for someone who has crossfired all 25 shots. A person who has only crossfired 1 shot theoretically gets the same penalty.

Do we leave it as is? or modify for Aussie IRB matches? Is it worth raising at the WBC meeting in France in 2011?

The posts are getting mixed

The posts are getting mixed up here we have jumped from Countback to crossfires?

From my perspective the crossfire example Annie gave is light on for penalty and is a no brainer - each shot fired on the target is a scoring shot each shot crossfired is a penalty
