In IPSC, is it a miss penalty, or a penalty for failure to place two shots on the target?
On a Comstock scored stage, I can shoot at (and miss) a target as many times as I want. If I eventually place two shots on that target, regardless of the number of misses I have in trying to accomplish that, there is no penalty.
On a Virginia count stage, I can also miss a target as many times as I want. If I eventually place two shots on target, I will receive penalties for extra shots, but no "miss" penalty.
