What I am a little worried about though is that I was told in certain shoots you have to hit all the targets...even if that means reloading while you're up there. That...would be a bit of an issue.

That's not SASS main match rules. Some matches do require the shotgun knockdown targets to be knocked down but shotguns aren't hard to reload on the clock. Stages usually are ten pistol rounds. Two pistols are required. Ten rifle rounds and four shotgun rounds. Sometimes an extra rifle round is required to be loaded on the clock. If you miss you miss and are recorded so. Targets are big and close but SASS is a game of speed and you'll be surprised at how easily those big, close targets are to miss when you're going fast. Most matches run 5-8 stages. C&B are popular at some matches but they have their faults in competition with cap jams and the like. You should have plenty of time to reload between stages. A C&B is loaded with powder and ball between stages and capped at the loading table.
