any rifle of the Victorian era welcomed, modern weapons allowed but usually ignored as boring. Although seeing afellow in the red tunic and Foreign Service helmet of the Zulu War shooting a M1A is a bit different.

Some come in costume, most don't.

Different theme every year based on one of Victoria's little wars. Zulu war, Sudan War, NW territories all have been used in the past.

Yes you could use that rifle in the match...although match is a bit deceptive, it isn't realy a competition, but an opportunity to show how well these old guns can still shoot.
