We will shoot 5 stages (with optional reshoot of stage 1) each match. Stages will emphasize the pistol.

* Renegade Category
Our Renegade category is intended to allow easy entry into Wild Bunch shooting by using your existing lever action rifles, CAS shotguns and even smaller 1911's. The true core of Wild Bunch is higher power factor and pump-action shotguns so we encourage everyone to explore Wild Bunch with our Renegade category but our official weekly winners will be from the Official WB categories.
