2005 World Wax Elimination Championships
Deadwood, South Dakota, June 11 - 12, 2005

The World Wax Elimination Championships was a Traditional Style contest that saw eighty of the fastest guns in the sport compete for the 2005 world title. This was a 3-out-of-5, 3X contest, meaning that you had to beat your competitor 3 shots, and you had to loose 3 rounds of shooting before being eliminated from the contest. The contestants were split into 3 divisions for women, and 3 divisions for men (AA, A & B) depending on their speed classification, with AA being the unlimited, fastest class. The ammunition consisted of wax bullets propelled by 6-grains of black powder at a steel target.
