We are an organization of shooters who shoot hand cast lead alloy bullets for both target competition and hunting.

The Washtenaw Cast Bullet Shooters conducts bench rest rifle matches monthly March through October. There are many classifications to allow everyone to participate in their form of matches with their rifle or handgun. We have classifications for jacketed bullets, hunter class pistols (Revolvers & TC Contenders)

Anyone may participate in our matches. You may use any rifle, any bullet. Everyone that participates has a great time. If you shoot any type of High Power or Varminter matches, our matches would be excellent practice during your off season.

We have informal practice sessions where we practice our marksmanship, exchange ideas and help those that are interested become better shooters. These are usually conducted weekly on either Thursdays and/or Tuesdays. If you are interested in shooting cast bullets, there is no better place to learn.

If you would like to learn more about The Cast Bullet Association or if you would like someone to mentor you in cast bullet shooting, contact the WCBS Match Director, Ed Krasny at cba@wsclub.org or call (734) 971-5077.
