DIG is legal according to USRCCA. Some smaller clubs in certain areas might not allow it. Just have to check with the clubs in your area.

You want to build a Super? Dig is most definitely allowed in that class. Here are the USRCCA rules:

To be competitive in either super or 2.2 it would be best to have dig. The West Coast Finals did allow and will allow dig.

The new 1.9 class does not allow dig.

The person who founded and runs the West Coast Finals owns a shop not too far from you in Reno (CKRC).

You're thinking of the Novice class which did not allow dig. 2.2 Pro class does. Less and less clubs seam to be holding Super Classes in their comps. In fact I am not aware of any comps for Supers in Norcal this season (fall 08 to now). If you are starting from scratch, look into building a MOA rig.
