4 would a minimum for production, 5 is better, as oldkim said. USPSA says 32 rounds max per stage, which is 4 mags. You want a spare in case something goes wrong, so 5. That is for Production, for Limited, you only need 2-3 XDM mags, because you load them to the top. So do not let lack of mags stop you, head on down.

The A-B-C-D zones on the target are scored 5-4-4-2 for major and 5-3-3-1 for minor. Hit the A zone, you get 5 points, either way. Production division is ALWAYS minor, the other divisions are split major/minor.
