Here's 5 you should not miss --
"The Wild Bunch" (1969) - great cast -- William Holden, Robert Ryan, Edmund O'Brien, Strother Martin, L.Q. Jones, Warren Oates, etc. -- about the passing of the West (one of my top 5 movies of all time). A heist goes very wrong, and an ex-gang member leads a bunch of losers to track and kill or capture the Wild Bunch as they try to escape to Mexico. Violent, and bloody, the WB realize they can't change as their time has passed and the future has arrived.
"The Magnificent Seven" (1960) - great cast, in a re-make of Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" set in West/Mexico. Seven gunfighters (well, 6 and a wanna-be) are hired to defend a village against bandits.Steve McQueen, James Coburn, Yul Brynner, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, Eli Wallach.
"My Darling Clementine" (1946 ) - John Ford's take on the shootout at the OK Corral. Henry Fonda, Victor Mature. A brilliant, deliberate, film. The standard against which all other OK Corral/Wyatt Earp films try to match.
"Tombstone" (1993) - Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer. Although Kevin Costner's "Wyatt Earp" is good, and came out the same year, this is the better version of the same story. Val Kilmer steals the movie as Dock Holliday.
"A Fistful of Dollars" [Per un pugno di dollari ] (1964) - Clint Eastwood. The spaghetti western that started them all, and made Clint a star. A re-make of Kurosawa's samurai movie "Yojimbo"
How The West Was Won
The Quick and the Dead (Sharon Stone & Russell Crowe)
American Outlaws
3:10 To Yuma (new Russell Crowe version)
Paleface
Son of Paleface
Man From Snowy River
Return To Snowy River
Tombstone is my favorite...
I also like:

The Man from Snowy River

Unforgiven
Rio Bravo
Open Range
True Grit - GOTTA LOVE JOHN WAYNE!!
Lots of good choices already(The Wild Bunch, Shane, Unforgiven, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, True Grit) , but some all-time greats that haven't been mentioned:
The Searchers (1956) - dir John Ford, starring John Wayne
Red River (1948) - dir Howard Hawks, starring John Wayne and Montgomery Clift
She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949) - dir John Ford, starring John Wayne
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1975) - dir and starring Clint Eastwood
Ride The High Country (1962) - dir Sam Peckinpah, starring Joel McRea and Randolph Scott
I don't know many except for once upon a time in the west. It was long too.LOL
Open Range with Kevin Costner
Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner
Tombstone with Kurt Russell
The Searchers with John Wayne
The Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood
Shane with Alan Ladd
McClintok with John Wayne
Big Jake with John Wayne
How the West was Won with Debbie Reynolds, Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, George Peppard, and another guy who's name escapes me right now but his is the next good movie...
McKenna's Gold....Ahha! Gregory Peck
I really miss getting the Western Channel, cause I liked watching the old Gene Autry movies.
