Speedloaders only legal in open division, which can also use conical bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 How would the rules read regarding sweeping yourself while ramming your ball? That rule would only apply if there were powder in the pan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z40acp Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The gun in the picture would not be allowed because it looks like an old assault weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Stages must not have more than 3 scoring targets, and 2 steel each. Gotta keep them short, cause it's gonna take a while to shoot them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 May be used in 3 gun, but only with birdshot ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 The gun in the picture would not be allowed because it looks like an old assault weapon. Like are deceiving. As it only holds one round, it is exempt. Open division will be allowed rifled barrels, all other divisions must be smooth bore and minimum of 54 caliber. Grip tape in all divisions strictly prohibited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOne Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 True black powder only! None of this new fangled fake stuff.

juan Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 would a black eye patch be allowed in all divisions ? or would that be considerd a optic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Is there any provision for rod length in the rules? I have a long rod and wouldn't want to make the RO's uncomfortable. Rod length shall not exceed the length of the barrel, and shall not be used as a projectile. Sorry Life, you will have to bear making the RO's uncomfortable....but I'm sure the small balls you have in your "possibles" bag will suffice.
