Question for High Power Competative shooters - 2016 rule in the Jan 2016 rule book: 14.18 Signal Systems for Scoring - why is there 2 different methods of marking a slow fire target? Each method is followed by the same method of marking for rapid fire.

Also, why do they count CCW when the natural tendency is to go CW?
Wow! . . .I see what you mean! . . .mighty confusing!!
Sure is different from when I was active.
The old signal system I used was FAR more simple!
What do you mean by "CCW" and "CW"?
Clock Wise (CW) vs Counter Clock Wise (CCW)....
First method is:
X .................................................. ......Center right side
10 .................................................. Bottom right corner
9 .................................................. ...........Bottom center
8 .................................................. ....Bottom left corner
7 .................................................. ......... Center left side
6 .....................................Center right side (same as X)
5 .............................. Bottom right corner (same as 10)
Miss .......... Both bottom left and bottom right corners
They start with the X at 3O'clock and go CCW down to 5 at 5 o'clock and a miss marked at both left and right corners of the target
Second method is:
X .................................................. ..... Center right side
10 ................................................. Bottom right corner
9 ............................................... Bottom right of center
8 ................................................. Bottom left of center
7 .................................................. ... Bottom left corner
6 .................................................. ........ Center left side
5 .................................... Center right side (same as X)
Miss .................. Center - just above the aiming black
Starts with X at 3 o'clock and ends with 5 at 3 o'clock and a miss marked at 12 o'clock
Wish, John, Harddog or Gus Fisher were still here.........
I guess all the competative hi-power shooters have left the building......
I am not an active HP shooter nowadays. This is a new critter for me, and just doggoned odd, IMO. I see room for considerable confusion, in these... again, JMO here!

I'm retired and shoot a lot, 45K miles last year going to mostly long range, Palma, and a few XTC matches all over the country. I have never seen the second method used, only the first.
