Battle Born Rangers typically offer both as part of the monthly Wild Bunch Matches. Along with BIG BORE at the CAS matches. They were also part of the Nevada State Wild Bunch match in 2023.

Never heard of anyone ever wanting to shoot one of these in 20 years of wild bunch. Probably because the 1st one was manufactured in 1949, 30 some years after the time period of the wild bunch. Rules are now it is not legal. Bring it up in the TG forum and see if it gets any traction. I am sure we will be discussing it at the next ROC meeting as well if there is significant interest. When I looked at gunbroker it looked like these were more expensive than a model 12. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1138024614

They are side match categories starting the first of the year, you will hopefully see these side matches more at state championships and above that have the facilities/range requirements.

Yes, that's it. The first post gives the changes/clarifications to the SHB and Policy changes from SASS HQ, as well as the vote issue.

Because they do not have the collector value that 97s and 12s have, making them more affordable for shooters. It hurts less to cut the barrel on a 25 than a 12 of comparable condition.

I stand corrected. I was thinking of the featherweight, I guess

The Model 25 holds 6….. The Model 12 Featherweight only holds 4.

I am wondering what changes are being voted on. To my knowledge, which is limited, the only thing being voted on by WBTG's is shotgun makeup's. Love the old rules in WB. Alaskan

Why would you want to use a Winchester 25? The magazine capacity is limited. 97"s and 12's are available, as far as slide-action shotguns are concerned..

Also it will help to post the measurements of the belts. Measure from the far end of the buckle to the middle hole.😉

I realize that. My comment was tongue in cheek. I’m in favor of good punctuation. Google “the Ron Pair comma” for an interesting story about punctuation.

My condolences. The SASS Wire (cowboy action forum) has a Classified section but only SASS members can post ads.

Would it be approved or is it approved? Maybe they will change the rules, but until then, no it is not.

I appreciate your reply, I will head over there and see if they can help me. Thank you again.

Sorry for your loss. This is the Wild Bunch wire. The time period is a little later than what you have there. I would suggest going to the SASS website and look for a cowboy action club near you. Reach out to them.

Good morning everyone, My father’s obsession with the old West, Cowboys, and single action revolvers was out of this world. Due to his health, he was unable to fire any of his firearms, but that did not slow his obsession for collecting. He has since lost his battles to cancer, and I am just getting the courage to go through what’s left of his collection. My great father and best friend has been lost. His guns and Spurs have been sold, to pay for medical bills. What is left is his collection of holsters. they all appear to be made from Fontier gun leather, and have never been worn outside the house. Any help or opinion on what I need to do to sell these. I would just like to see them go to a good home. Someone whose passion for the old West was that like my father’s. I would like to sell these at a fair price to someone that can use, and appreciate them. Thank you all for your help in advance, Mark

I would submit a request to the ROC requesting approval.

Thank you! It was a great day with thirty family here!

Winchester Mdl 25 Hummm . . . . Been reading and pondering this thread for a few day now and still somewhat confused. Also have been shootin' WB for a long time. Quite frankly, NEVER heard of a Winchester Mdl 25. Of course, that should not mean anything to anybody. I don't know a lotta things about many things. I liked it after looking it up. Less parts to fail than the Winchester 97 has. I am puzzled why shooting this particular Model of a Winchester scattergun should make any difference to anyone in WB?? The Winchester 97 is allowed in WB. The 97, apparently, is allowed to be used in WB with both the take-down and solid frame models. Did not find anything in the WB Handbook about not using the solid frame 97. In my past, I have used all of my 97's for WB. All 4 of the Winchester 97's I own have been modified to take 6 shells as the 2 Norinco's I have. Have used them all before diving into the 3 Winchester Mdl 12's that I now have. What difference should the Winchester Mdl 25 make to anyone if used? I am confused with the 'must be approved' discussion. J.J.

I think this is just an example of the lack of an Oxford comma rendering a sentence confusing. WBAS does not allow 1911s in any cartridge except God's, 45 Auto.

🦃Happy Thanksgiving Pards🦃

I hope it’s a great day!

I’ve got a double stack one if you’re interested.
