Local Shooting Categories

Local Shooting Categories

In addition to the categories recognized by SASS, the Oak Ridge Outlaws allow several specialty categories in our matches: Double Duelist, Outlaw and Josey Wales. The rules for these categories are:

Double Duelist:

One revolver shot with left hand and the other shot with right hand.  All other SASS rules for the Duelist category apply.

Outlaw: 

You must hold pistols and shotgun below chest level with elbows bent, without aiming or sighting down the barrel.  The rifle may be aimed and fired from the shoulder, but that is not required.  Pistols must be shot one handed, duelist, double duelist, or gunfighter style only.

Josie Wales: 

In place of the rifle, two additional revolvers are used.  These two revolvers will be loaded with no more than five rounds.  (If fewer than ten rounds are needed for the rifle portion of the stage, the shooter will load revolvers as desired, not to exceed the rifle ammo count for the stage each.  In the event the stage requires more than ten rifle rounds or includes a requirement to reload the rifle, the Josie Wales shooter may elect to load as many rounds as the stage requires while “on the clock” or just take the miss penalties.  At no time will the shooter lower the hammer on a live round.)  These revolvers will be fired following the rifle instructions in the scenario.  They may be staged in place of the rifle or carried and drawn from belt or shoulder holsters in accordance with SASS rules.  In whatever manner these revolvers are transported, they may not sweep anyone nor violate the 170 rule.  The shooter may also elect to use a fifth revolver in place of a shotgun.  This revolver will be loaded with the exact number of rounds as there are shotgun targets, not to exceed five.  The shooter may load an additional round on the clock (in accordance with SASS rules) if there are six shotgun targets.  You are not allowed to reload to make up misses.
