IDPA Rules 2026: Scoring, Penalty Seconds & Power Factor by Division
IDPA Rules 2026 in 60 Seconds (BLUF)
Short answer: IDPA scores you on raw time plus penalty seconds — lowest total wins. Hits in the centre -0 zone add nothing, -1 adds one second each, -3 adds three, and a miss is five. The 2026 rulebook calls the two scoring methods Unlimited Scoring (best hits count, extra shots allowed) and Limited Scoring (extra shots get punished) — the old “Vickers Count” and “Limited Vickers” names are gone from the book, though everyone at the range still says them. You must use cover when offered, engage near-to-far (Tactical Priority), reload behind cover, and wear a concealment garment that hides your entire rig with arms outstretched. Procedural errors are 3 seconds, Flagrant Penalties 10 seconds, FTDR 20 seconds, hits on a non-threat 5 seconds, and safety violations (sweeping a muzzle, dropping a loaded gun, AD) are an immediate DQ.
