2023 Classification Breakpoint Changes
Classification breakpoints are reviewed annually and it has been decided to amend the class boundaries across most of the events in an attempt to spread shooters more fairly across the divisions offered. The majority of changes are just tweaks to the class boundaries – some raised – some lowered. However two major changes should be noted:
- The T&P2 LBR competition (0904) has been changed from three divisions to one – essentially its now unclassified. There were not enough people submitting scores (19 over three seasons) to justify splitting it.
- 1020 LBP and LBR competitions (1621 and 1622) are now classified into three divisions which aligns with the rifle events.
The new breakpoints for the start of the 2023 season are below. Areas of change have been highlighted in red. If anyone needs to refer to the previous set of breakpoints they are archived here.
Shooter classifications will be automatically re-aligned to the new boundaries before the first competition of the 2023 season. Match Directors and stats gurus need to ensure they amend their scoring software to reflect the numbers below if they offer prizes or awards in any of these events.
