It is not unusual for some of the late 1800's to 1920's top break revolvers to be used in CAS (Cowboy Action Shooting) competition. The Tip Up (.22) revolvers are rather fragile, but some do shoot them with very low powered CB Caps. There are even a few who shoot the 32 Rim Fires from time to time. The .32 and .38 top breaks can be used some with modern ammo which is loaded pretty light in the .32 S&W and .38 S&W.

Be sure to have the guns checked by a competent gunsmith before attempting to shoot.

Welcome to the Forum and have Fun with S&W.
