What could be a typical course of fire?
How much ammo is required?
What type of gear (holster/speedloaders) are legal and required?
Thanks!

Not the most intuitive site, but if you snoop around, you'll find the answers to all your questions. In the top header, go to "Tools" and you'll get a drop-down menu that includes a catalog of classification stages. Also the rule book is there.
On the main page there is a link for the stages for the Postal Match - I believe that LPRGC intends to shoot the Postal Match, plus a fun stage (similar to what I described in my second post) for July's match.
Equipment is pretty wide open. Holster has to cover the trigger and carry the gun so the heel of the butt is above the bottom of the belt. Also must be secure (hop test).
Guns must be .32 Mag or larger. All ammo must have a minimum 120 power factor (bullet weight x velocity / 1000). Divisions are: Classic - 6-shot loaded with speed loaders, speed strips or singly / Limited - 8-shot loaded with moon clips / Limited 6 - 6-shot loaded with moon clips / Open - Pretty much anything goes, optics, comps etc.
There is more, but you can find that in the rules. I use the same rig for ICORE as I do for USPSA...
...but there are many options open to me. I could use the guns I use for IDPA, they would just require more loading devices.
Come on out and give it a try - next match at LPRGC should be 07/13 - watch their web page.
Adios,
Pizza Bob
