Today we received the answer from the county with regards to our application to use .40 and up for Dall IPSC Challenge. Our request was denied, and we were informed that we'd have put together an application which included information about the possible noise abatement solutions to bring the noise down to the level our ranges are currently approved at. Needless to say, there's no way this could be done in time for Challenge this year, and there's no guarantee our application would be granted even if we went ahead with it.

We're just as disappointed as you, but the max. calibre limit of .38/9mm will remain in place for Dall IPSC Challenge 2015.
