I recommend you start a new thread with this topic. "IDPA in Pennsylvania". You'll get more response. Also. Pennsylvania shooters have a forum of their own. Can't remember what they call it. Do a google search and it should pop up.
Good thread. I came here looking for similar info as I am thinking of getting started in competition. A friend of mine has some videos on youtube and showed them to me recently. They can be seen here.
Anyway, in talking with him, one of the things that has made him FASTER is AMMO. He is now reloading and has a load that shoots VERY SMOOTHLY with almost NO Recoil. I think he said he got his cost per 100 down to $8.
If and when I get into this, I haven't decided between Glock or XD, but I am leaning XD (I have never really liked the Glocks). I already own a Subcompact 9mm and love it, but for competition, I would need something Full-size.
