Cap and ball not allowed?

[Oregon Bill]

Pilgrim here. Cap and ball revolvers not allowed in NCOWS?

[Silver Creek Slim]

Yes, they are allowed. Originals and clones of Colt's, Remingtons, Starrs, Pattersons, etc. But, the Ruger Old Army is not allowed.

The only two C&Bs not allowed in NCOWS are the Ruger Old Army (but, the Ruger Vaquero is!!!!) as already noted, and a Colt 1873 replica with C&B cylinder.

Of course they are.  There is even a separate class.  "Pistoleer"  their rifles must be pre-1873 and they only shoot 2 shot guns shots because they are allowed to use muzzle loading shotguns.  Some years we have quite a few in this class.

I forgot that one. Thanks, Lars.

Wow. Thanks for the answers. NCOWS is starting to sound like it's going to be a part of my future, if I can just find some posse mates here in Oregon.

It takes balls to shoot Pistoleer....well, and caps too...and powder of course. 

I had a '51 Navy break completely in two at the Midwest Regional this year (cylinder pin snapped in half). You can't have that much fun in most of the other classes. I still got second place...the other guy got next to last
