Interested in a Cowboy Clays shoot
« on: March 11, 2024, 05:13:30 PM »
It has been discussed that we start a Cowboy Clays shoot at ORSA. Ranger Z has suggested we poll those interested and see what afternoon during the week might be best for such a shoot.  We would be shooting on the skeet field with our Cowboy shotguns.  No fancy 90 degree turned double barrels allowed. Cowboy attire except big brimmed hats. So if you are interested let me know what day and what time works for you.

Jackalope is in.  No preference on which day.

Maybe clays and long range on the same day?  Just wondering....

I'm open for any day and time.
May want to avoid dates for upcoming state matches.

Actually says no black powder weapons so not sure what that would mean. We will need to get clarification from Doc or Ethan.

Weird, random rule stuck away in their shotgun range rules section.

First shotgun range I've ever heard of to ban black powder.

Maybe they are talking about muzzleloaders,

I expect they were trying to restrict muzzle-loading shotguns for some reason.  I really can't imagine what kind of safety-related issue anyone might have strictly concerning black powder v. smokeless.

A black powder ban on an outdoor range would be close but not the most ridiculous range rule I've encountered.  An indoor range in Vacaville, CA offered special fees on particular days each month.  For example, on their "Glock Day", you got some kind of discount if you were shooting a Glock.  They also offered a "Colt SAA Day".  Oddly enough, Colt SAA revolvers and their clones were not allowed to be used in their range.  The only single-action revolvers allowed required a transfer bar.

Never did figure that one out...nor did I ever do business with them again.
