    Question Cowboy Action shooters?

    Is Cowboy Action shooting big in the UK? Due to regs you'd be restricted to percussion revolvers, but many CAS shooters in the US prefer them to cartridge anyway.

    Yes, we do a bit of all that at my club. Unfortunately there are powder restrictions, so you can't run the pistols at full power. Most just have one for the sake of it, but some are competitive shooters I believe.

    I don't really like the M/L BP pistols much I'm afraid .

    That's why I like air pistols: clean, quiet: I can shoot them in my back yard and have virtually no clean up.

    I'm lazy!
