Competition Shooting

Kinda a dumb question. Do you know ahead of time how many rounds are fired on each stage?? How do you plan on how many mags you will need for each stage?

Yes, in IDPA (and I assume in USPSA) there's always a quick briefing or walk-through. Of course you only know for sure how many rounds you'll need, if you know how many times you're going to miss the target.
