Buffalo Bill and his Wild West Show are in town and Buffalo Bill has heard that your are quite a shot and would like to challenge you to gentleman's Demonstration of Shooting Prowess. You accept and show up at the arena at the appointed time. A large crowd has gathered to whiteness one of the greatest demonstrations of shooting skill the old west has ever see.
You and Bill have shot Silver Dollars out of the air, Billiard balls off various props and dead center shots in playing cards, Bill using his favorite rifle and you favorite your revolvers. Both of you have tied and it's time to move on to the final challenge. To make it more difficult, the last competition will be a three-gun event, involving pistols, rifles and shotguns. Here you must use all three types of firearms in a specific order. Included in this competition is the dreaded Texas Star, that five armed spinning target of trouble.
Time will be important and one of the spectators will be keeping track of the time with his brand new Dollar Ingersal Watch.
Starting at position one the rifle at port arms say your line "Let the competition begin!". At the buzzer knock down the Texas Star targets, the release target to drop the weight and the four KD targets in any order. It is possible you will drop a Texas Star target on the release arm which will release the rolling target. If you do not release the roller with a target from the Texas Star you may shoot the KD target to release the rolling target. If the drop weight of the rolling target ends up in the box you receive a ten second bonus. For the rifle portion of this match only targets left on the Texas Star, the drop weight not dropped and any pipes left standing will be counted as misses. The KD is not a scoring target. The release target does not have to be moving to be shot to drop the weight. The weight falling off on it's own does not count as a hit.
Move to position 2, stage your rifle and with your shotgun shoot the four shotgun targets left to right.
Stage your shotgun and move to position three. With your handguns shoot the KD target to release the swinger and then shoot the swinger.
