Doh! He did it!

Is there a reference site that lists Average National scores for the qualifiers?

The classifier calculator on the uspsa mobile app

He did but its not “ can you count” on the first two runs
Lol

The CO high hit factor on can you count is 15.5

...Thus enhancing the "can you count" factor. I'm just going to go ahead and put odds on myself double-tapping the classifier and ending up with 3 FTEs. I've only "not" effed this up once in 3 tries (...so far). First time out I Bill Drilled it with 6 rounds instead of 5. Next time I PCC'ed it and didn't bother to reload.

...Second thought, that will probably be 6 FTEs...

Is there a reference site that lists Average National scores for the qualifiers?

Only thing I've found is a "classifier calculator" site where I punch in my score and it returns "You're too slow."

To answer your question, USPSA does not provide average scores for each classifier.

Refer to page 4 of the USPSA Competition Rules for an explanation of the USPSA Classification System. It uses percentages of the High Hit Factor on file for each classifier. Your Hit Factor is compared to the High Hit Factor to determine a percentage, which translates to a classification (A, B, C, etc.) based on which range of percentages it falls in. One image included here shows the Hit Factor Levels needed for each Class in Carry Optics for the classifier stages “Can You Count” and “Tight Squeeze” (from the USPSA app). You can see that a Hit Factor of 9.6 (60%) on “Can you Count” would be a B-Class score, but on “Tight Squeeze” a 9.6 (93.3%) would be a Master-Class score. Each Division has its own Hit Factor Levels. See page 4 of the Rules for how many scores are required to get an initial Classification, and how subsequent Classifications are determined as you log more classifier scores.

Thank you

I had a great time tonight. Thanks for putting this on.

Thank you

To make it simple...you will never know the average score, but you can back-calculate the highest hit factor ever shot on a given classifier, by looking up your percentage for that classifier on the USPSA site, and doing a little math on your own hit factor.

To use Kane's example above, if you shoot a 9.6 hit factor on Can You Count, and the USPSA site (not the match results) says that's 60%, it means it's 60% of the highest hit factor ever shot. So the highest hit factor ever entered would be 9.6/0.6 = 16. (As you can surmise, that can go up over time, although when they removed the "B" zone from the Metric targets it could have theoretically made it ever so slightly harder to bump that up).

How? Isn’t the area on the target that used to be called “B”, now “C”? And B and C hits have always scored the same.

you are correct
