Voting Item #1
Any unloaded firearm that falls, regardless of whether it breaks the 170 will be a SDQ. SASS will remove the verbiage surrounding a gun that "slips and falls"/breaking the 170 vs. not breaking the 170. The rule with variables is no longer applicable- it dates back to when props and staging were less reliable. ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF THIS CHANGE?
RESULTS
YES: 236 (88.7%)
Change the rule to state that any firearm that falls is a SDQ. (Unless actual prop failure occurs)
NO: 30 (11.27%)
Leave all the variables in place.

Voting Item #2
A cocked revolver re-holstered with unfired round(s) is currently a SDQ. A re-holstered revolver with unfired rounds, cocked and released can be incredibly dangerous. The proposed change up for vote is changing the penalty for a cocked revolver re-holstered with unfired round(s) remaining leaving the shooters hand will be changed to a MATCH DQ.
RESULTS
YES: 222 (83.4%)
I am in favor of changing the penalty to a MDQ.
NO: 44 (16.5%)
Leave the penalty as a SDQ.

The above proposed rule changes will become effective January 1st. 2026. The new version of the Shooters Handbooks and RO Course Materials will be updated to reflect this change and will become available in January 2026.

One of the most challenging stages I've shot in the Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter category, not because of the target sequence, but the SMOKE, it was early in the morning and the sun was in front, temps where cool, and the smoke just hung. It was glorious!

Got pretty lucky on this stage. Not much help from the breeze with the closely spaced rifle targets but the slight breeze from the right and a left to right sweep with the pistols made that sequence a "breeze".

If you're in the Central VA area I suggest checking out the Mattaponi Sundowners Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) Cowboy Action Shooting Club at the West Point Gun Club. Great people, great matches, good times all around. More "Wild" action from the 7/21 Sunday match, enjoy Stage 2.

Stage 1 from the 7/21/2024 monthly match with the Mattaponi Sundowners. It sure was a “Wild” match! Match included the Wild Bunch category and we had several Cowboys give the old 1911 a workout. I stuck with Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter.
