I'll leave it to Bat to address your question.

Wow, I hope those are snap caps in the cylinder in your avatar! I certainly wouldn't want to be the cameraman/person.

I would think so, the model 8 goes back to 1906 I have one from 1908 and 1927 and 1933 the WSL are acceptable. I did have a couple of them in 351 and 401 but let them go a few years ago,,,,,,,

I'm not totally up on Zoot rules, but I expect the Mod 8 won't work for matches, since it's a full power rifle cartridge, unless they have a long range or paper target stage.

Pony hit it on the head.  The rifle caliber Remington s 8 and 81 are allowed in long range AZSA side matches only.  They are too powerful for the up close and personal main match Capers (stages).

While too powerful for the game, we can still talk about them and admire pictures of yours  :).
