The ammunition needed to shoot the course is 60 rounds pistol, 60 rounds rifle and 25 rounds shotgun. Lead bullets only and shot no larger than #4. New shooters are always welcome. Everyone enjoys showing people how much fun can be had shooting guns of the old west dressed up in clothing of time.

Cowboy action shooting is a multi-faceted shooting sport in which contests compete with firearms typical of those used in the taming of the Old West.
