SASS Wild Bunch Action Shooting is a multifaceted amateur shooting sport in which contestants compete with firearms typical of those used in the taming of the Old West just after the turn of the 20th century: 1911 semi-auto pistols, lever action rifles, and 1897 pump shotguns. The shooting competition is staged in a unique, characterized, Old West style.
Contestants shoot in several one-to-three gun stages (courses of fire) in which they engage steel and/or cardboard targets. Scoring is based on accuracy and speed.
The truly unique aspect of SASS Wild Bunch Action Shooting is the requirement placed on authentic period or western screen dress. Each participant is required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, or a Hollywood western star, and develop a costume accordingly.
The 2012 SASS National Championship of Wild Bunch Action Shooting will be conducted using SASS Wild Bunch Action Shooting rules. Shooters should familiarize themselves with these rules. They can be found by clicking here.
