Hell, every day is cowboy action day around here!

lol actually we do it in the Hamptons!

I've been thinking about it. I would need lots of guns though, I think. I think I need 4 guns to get started but I'm having a hard time comprehending how any sport that requires 4 guns to get started in could possibly survive. Between that, and dressing up, it's a no-go for me. I've been competing in IPSC for years. I won't even wear a baseball cap when I shoot.

well in its defense it is multinational and it has millions of members throughout the country but I can understand your point with four guns. to be honest I was very hesitant about dressing up myself because that's just not me but it happens to be a lot of fun when you actually do it!

It's not a cheap sport by any means. And it can get more expensiver as you get more involved. Talk about acquisition disorders!

And, the first shoot I went to, I felt as though I was on the set of a big cowboy/ western movie with all the authentic old west garb, buildings, guns, and ceegars. Actually pretty cool if your into that stuff.

no it's definitely not cheap but it is pretty cool once you get into it!

It seems I have a friend who does it. He says they use light loads and are quite proficient! He has money to burn, BTW! He hog-hunts from a helicopter with an AR, hanging off the side in a harness! It would be fun!

only those who make their own loads use light loads because they can build them that way otherwise I use regular factory loads. either way they're quite proficient though!

Those light loads are known in the sport as "Gamer" loads. I fired a load once that was so light, we thought it was a squib at first. That round probably just cleared the muzzle before dropping to the ground.

Wow...well I was way off!
