Welcome to
the home of the Southern Missouri
Rangers(SMR). Southern Missouri Rangers is the
name of a group of individuals who have been
active in the sport of Cowboy Action
Shooting(CAS) for quite some time. SMR
organized in the winter of 2000 and is
affiliated with the parent organization, the
Single Action Shooting Society(SASS). SASS
provides uniform rules for the sport of CAS.
The members of SMR are a group of dedicated
cowboys and cowgirls who enjoy the sport of
CAS, share a love of history and folklore and
have a common interest and respect for the
weapons of the Old West. |
| Cowboy
Action shooting is the fastest growing sport
where men, women, boys and girls, young and
old, have the opportunity to wear western
costumes/clothing and relive shooting
scenarios of the Old West. All clothing must
be representative of the late 19th century,
B-western movies or a western TV series. The
shooter decides what shooting category to
participate in, what persona/alias to adopt,
what clothes to wear and what shooting irons
to exercise. |

Firearms must be originals or reproductions
of firearms available between the Civil War
and 1899. Basic firearms utilized include
single action revolvers, lever action rifles
and double-barreled, side by side, pre 1899
pump or lever action shotguns. A shooters
class or category is determined by the type of
six-gun, propellant and shooting style. There
are six basic categories: Traditional,
frontier cartridge, modern, duelist,
gunfighter and frontiersman. The SASS Shooter's
Handbook should be consulted for firearm
regulations and category descriptions. |
| SMR holds monthly shooting matches where
individuals shoot steel targets with live
ammunition. Props, stages, aliases and period
clothing help create an aura of the American
West of over 100 years ago. Matches are scored
based upon elapsed shooting time plus penalty
points for missed targets. Winning is not the
primary goal: Safety is of paramount
importance to the club. Safety is everyone's
responsibility and it is vital for everyone's
enjoyment. Having fun, shooting old-time
firearms and socializing with fellow cowboys
and cowgirls are what we do the fourth weekend
of each month at our range in Marshfield, Mo.
