LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 IIRC, in everything but Classic Cowboy/Cowgirl. No rimless cartridges there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Ruger SR1911 gets used in WB about twice a year. Hope to change that when I retire in a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel City Dude Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 At our local matches we allow those that want to shoot WB to do so. But they have to shoot the same targets and sequences as for Cowboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see a need to part with these guns as I wholly plan on shooting WB again someday. Hopefully sooner than later. I have 2 clubs within easy driving distance that offer WB regularly and I cannot get there. Why? That 4 letter word... work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still keep my part time gig, Haven't shot in 3 months, which is a long time for me, I'm burned out on repetitious 10-10-4 drag race stages. Might break out my Frontiersman guns.

I'm shooting FC more and more, well at least within CC but the last monthly I did I shot FCGF and used my Lightning and had a blast! Just need more time to do it all.

I'll never be a top speed shooter. I concentrate on trying for a clean match, and using different guns depending on my mood that particular weekend. This week it's the Bisley's. Next week it's the Mare's Legs (If allowed by local club) Week after that, it's the regular Colts. Then it's the Buntline paired with the Sheriff's model, or maybe 2 sheriffs. Gotta take out the Big Iron at least once a year. Or the Spencer. Walker and Dragoon combo is always fun. Maybe I won't use a Lightning one particular week and use one of my lever guns. Gotta take the Parker out once in a blue moon instead of the trusty 97. The 87 needs to be shot on occasion as well. Maybe the Nagants deserve a turn. I just have fun playing with my toys.
