Any release of the propelling charge, after the first competition target is in place, without a hit on the target will be scored as a miss. Dry firing without the release of the propelling charge is permitted except during finals.
If the shooter wishes to change or fill, a gas or air cylinder,he/she must leave the firing point to do so (permission must be obtained). No extra time will be allowed to compensate for time lost by a shooter who leaves the firing point to charge or to fill their gas or air cylinder.
IF IT'S NOT BROKE.........DON'T FIX IT!
