Black Powder Matches

[mjbsparky]

Are there any antique black powder matches around? I shoot a 1777 flintlock Corrige rifle and an 1861 Springfield rifle. Would be fun to have a black powder competition.

Anyone aware of any?

Start one?

A guy at my Club used to shoot in BP competitions (in another state), where a team of x shooters competed against other teams to cut a 4 x 4 planted in the ground, in half.

I think Reading will be having one sometime in October or November and there used to be some in Maine called York Powder Burner, but I think that is over. There is a big supplier of BP in Maine and they used to sell st matches, try giving them a call see if they can help you.

A bunch of BP shooters get together on Tuesday morning at Reading.

Pembroke used to have a Turkey shoot by the cabin. Not sure if that is still a thing.
