New For 2026:
Outdoor Dynamics Falling Steel WORLD RECORDS
This Year, 2026, Falling Steel World Series will debut 3 standardized "World Record" stages presented by Outdoor Dynamics. Similar to a classifier, these stages will be set the exact same at every FSWS match. This will be an excellent way to track your progress across matches as well as a way to compete for an actual WORLD RECORD! FSWS will debut 1 new stage at our first 3 matches this year. We will award any new "World Records" in our 6 competition divisions on each stage at the conclusion of a match. Keep watching for the release of our Outdoor Dynamics World Record stages and diagrams in the weeks prior to the match.
STAFF: If you are interested in shooting and working this match as staff, please contact Corey.FSWS@hotmail.com . We have a very generous staff prize package.
ENTRY FEES: $85.00 first gun; $65 Each additional gun. $15 Discount for Junior Shooters. Shooters may shoot multiple divisions, one entry per time slot/ squad, one entry per division. Just register again and select a new division and squad.
Mulligans- We are selling mulligans for $25 each with proceeds going towards the Range Officers' dinner. Only one Mulligan may be used per entry. Mulligans are non-transferable. They can only be used by the competitor who bought it and are good for this match only. You may purchase multiple mulligans if you are shooting multiple divisions (one use per division) and a competitors' mulligan may be used in any division they are shooting. Mulligans will be available to purchase during online registration and during shooter check-in.
To use your mulligan, you must notify your Range Officer, turn in your mulligan ticket, and reshoot before your squad leaves the stage. Your first score will be void and the new score will stand - you do not get to pick the best of the two.
FREE SHIRT- Free Falling Steel World Series Event Shirt to every shooter registered by April 20th.
