John,
Ok...will ask you the same question. Have you ever given a FTDR for anyone that just stops in the middle of a scenario with a firearm that could have been cleared and they could have continued (local match or not)? They did not do the required reloads. They did not fire the required rounds.
Again, the FTDR rule is flawed because at the core of the rule, the SO/MD must know what the shooter is thinking. If we simply go by actions then the revolver shooter in this case is the same as the double feed shooter that stops in the middle of a CoF. Both could have gone on but decided not to. Neither got a better score because each would have points down and PE's that would negate any advantage. By putting this decision by the shooter at the end of the CoF rather than in the middle, the SO seems to think that they have a better knowledge of the shooter's mental decisions. I find that cognative process flawed. Fair is fair. The rulebook should allow things to be called equal independent of when and where the dicision is made during a CoF. One quits at the beginning of a CoF...no FTDR. One quits in the middle of a CoF...no FTDR. One quits at the end....FTDR. That's my point.
Thanks for a great discussion. Anything more on my part is simply rehash of my position.
Thanks All
Garry
