Please PM me the rules and targets and post the site you got them from.
I have a couple of targets on www,targetbunny.btik.com in the self defence section but I would welcome the rules to post on site.

This should get us to a set of rules...

This to a target....
http://www.PP1_CO2-2
And if this doesn't work, we can get nickambrose to post them!
In any case, I see the comp being like this: very simple, just like me:
PRACTICE 1: Load 6 (or 8) rounds, gun held lowered, GO! you have 2 minutes total elapsed time to raise pistol, fire all rounds, reload, raise, fire all rounds.
12 rounds fired (or 16)
PRACTICE 2: Load 6 (or 8) rounds, gun at lowered position, GO! You have 2 seconds to raise pistol, acquire target, fire! Lower gun, count to 5, GO! Repeat sequence till all rounds are fired.
"Clock" stops. Reload, repeat as in previous paragraph.
12 rounds fired (or 16)
PRACTICE 3: "Double taps". Load 6 (or 8) rounds, lower gun, GO! You have 2 seconds to raise pistol, acquire target, and fire TWO rounds! Lower gun, count to 5, GO! Repeat till all rounds are fired.
6 rounds fired (or 8).
Course of fire is thus 30 rounds (or 40: whichever we decide).
We would use a fresh target for each string, or each practice (3 or 5 needed: leave it up to each shooter).
Honor system, each shooter "counts" his time. No turning equipment, assistant, or stopwatch needed.
6 yards should be a sufficient distance: it's a realistic police shooting distance, much contrary to the drivel you see on TV cop shows.

Not really looked into this type of shooting indepth yet.
Quick suggestion, if you can't make a turning device, use a board that is taller than you to stand behind the firing line. Break cover aim & shoot, then go back behind board. If possible set targets at different positions. Or have one target & a assistant to reposition target. So when you break cover you need to find the target then fire. Different timings could be set.
Regards
Paddy.

Had a quick go with this set up
Behind Cover / Breaking cover shoot straight away / Result 2shots together & 1 in hand
Easy to set up, could use more than one target depending on size of your range.

Big Ears (from the PPC thread) emailed me the target PDF and course of fire.
I've been getting fair results with my PPK at 7 and 12 metres but 20 is a bit much to expect from sub 2ft lb.
I've worked out a mechanical design for a manual twin turning target which I may make if the PPC thing catches on with UBC.
Can you post these here, Crabbet?

Hi Jim, we did this match at Bisley Phoenix meeting a couple of years ago. It was shot at three different distances. I think 5yds 10 yds and 15yds.
Over the weekend I will look in the attic and see if I can find the papers.
We used a shot timer and reduced targets. I shot it with a 6" S&W with Weaver Red Dot (now fitted to my 8" S&W).
I mention with every due modesty I walked off with the Gold
