About This Program
What to expect when you show up
Wednesday Night Steel is a cowboy-action shooting match where you run timed scenarios with your single-action revolver, lever rifle, and shotgun dressed in period gear under a western alias. It's pure Old West competition—fast-paced, fun, and a break from standard range shooting. Unified Sportsmens Club in Rexburg hosts these weekly matches. You'll shoot multiple stages with different target arrays and shooting positions, competing against the clock and other shooters. The format rewards speed and accuracy on realistic Old West scenarios.
