Accuracy, power, and speed were recognized as the quintessential elements and have become the foundation of IPSC shooting.

Both IPSC and IDPA cover five stages of 104 and 64 rounds, respectively. The remaining four Rifle stages have a total of 100 rounds.

The event is open not only to the members of the police and military force but also to civilians and other private individuals who want to test their marksmanship and shooting proficiency. (FREEMAN)
