The proposed Black Powder Target Rifle Federation:
We hope to Federate the Clubs of Byers Col, Alliance Neb, Cheyenne WY, and Worland WY. To promote the pursuit of Black Powder Target rifle Paper Matches in the central WEST USA.
We hope that the Desert International Match group will lend their considerable weight to this endeavor also.
PLEASE SHARE THIS INFORMATION NATION WIDE. WE HOPE EASTERN clubs that have had Bptr matches in the past will join in this worthwhile endeavor.
This year marks the 150th Anniversary of the 1874 Creedmoor match shot at Creedmoor NY. Let us all work together to preserve this important part of our great nation's shooting Heritage.
Remember also:

Kenny,
From your posts elsewhere it appears you are trying to to be inclusive of not only the long range paper matches but long range steel target matches also.
Is that correct?

Sounds good.
Can't speak for the Forsyth club
But definitely interested when I get my range done.
Rehanging a steel NRA sized target , and will make provisions for adding 3 ft extensions for creedmoor style target.

In the process of turning over the aerial application part of my business to a younger generation, so hopefully I will have more time to play in the near future.

Great news! As a reminder, don't forget to make provision for your adult supervision in the transition. :wink:

Brian,

Would like your email addy for the federation and would big hill group want to be affiliated with it? The Quigley committee is already all in. I think that would include Mark and Dale and you as directors at large for the federation.

This is where the rubber meets the road… The NRA could never accomplish this kind of networking.
