I do a lot of action pistol shooting, IPSC, IDPA. ICORE, Steel, etc etc.

Every other week our club has one of the above matches.

I've been going over the results of my shooting over the last couple years and it appears I can shoot my M-64 revolver better then any of my autos, I can't load as fast with speed loaders. Plus a 6 shot revolver is no match for my 18 rounds Beretta, in shooting steel, but the multi-round mags is ruining my shooting.

I don't care if I win or loose, I just care about my shooting, beating my last scores.

I'm going to back off autos for a while and stick to accuracy. Might even convert my M-64 to moon clips.

Anyone else feel that multi-cap semi autos is ruining your shooting?
