Cowboy action

What is SASS?

The Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) was created to preserve and promote the sport of Cowboy Action Shooting.

• Cowboy Action Shooting is a family oriented shooting sport which preserves and promotes the spirit
  and traditions of the Old West!
• It’s not only a sport, but a celebration of the Cowboy lifestyle with a focus on American history, camaraderie and the safe recreational use of firearms instead of pure competition.

What type of firearms are used in Cowboy Action Shooting?

Firearms used are typical of those used in the taming of the Old West:

• Single action revolvers
  • Any single action revolver designed and in use prior to 1899, or copies thereof, including the Ruger Vaquero, Bisley-Vaquero and Blackhawk. Must be of .32 caliber or greater. No modern
    modifications.
• Pistol caliber lever action rifles
  • Any lever or slide action, tubular fed, exposed hammer rifle or carbine manufactured before 1899, or reproduction. Must be in a pistol caliber of .25 caliber or greater. Only open iron sites or original style tang mounted peep sites are allowed.
• Old time shotguns
  • Any side by side shotgun typical of the era without automatic ejectors. Any lever action or a Winchester 97 pump shotgun. Bore no larger than 10 ga. and no smaller than 20 ga.

Ammunition

• Revolver ammunition must have a muzzle velocity of less than 1000 fps.
• Rifle ammunition must have a muzzle velocity less than 1400 fps.
• Rifle and revolver ammunition must be of single projectile design and must be all lead.
• No jacketed, semi-jacketed, plated, gas checked or copper washed bullets allowed.

Gear

Safety Equipment
All shooters and spectators must have safety glasses and hearing protection. Several vendors offer period looking glasses and most competitors use ear plugs of various types to accommodate wearing a western hat.

Carrying your guns

• Western style leather holsters are required for all revolvers. Leather shotgun belts or slides are available.

You may want to make or buy a gun cart to move your gear between stages during a match.

Costume

• A truly FUN aspect of Cowboy Action Shooting is the requirement placed on dressing for historical reenactment
  or western screen dress.

   

  • A great deal of emphasis is placed on costuming because it adds so much to the festive, informal and
    entertainment value of our sport.

the “Alias”

• Each participant is required to adopt an alias appropriate to a person or profession of the late 19th century or a
  Hollywood western star.

   

  • This is a truly fun aspect of the sport! At each match, participants are known by their Alias and you may
    never learn what their real names are.

Scoring and Timing

• Matches are scored based on elapsed shooting time with added penalty points for misses and procedurals.
• Each stage is scored individually, and most of the time, the total combined score for all stages completed is ranked for place of finish, either overall or by category.
