SINGLE ACTION 65
This discipline is for replicas of single action cartridge revolvers designed before 1900. It includes such iconic models as the Colt Peacemaker and Cattleman, the Smith and Wesson Schofield and the Ruger Blackhawk.
This match is also referred to as the Single Action 25 Yard Match and is shot to modified Service 25 Yard match Rules. The timings have been amended to better suit the single action revolvers.
