The Morgantown > Rod & Gun Club is looking into the possibility of holding a black > powder shoot. I have been tasked for the moment to see if there is > enough interest to proceed to the next level. My name is Rob Harney > and I am new to the Club but interested in black powder shooting. > If you think this is something you'd like to participate in let me know. > > What I have in mind right now is as follows: > > 1.) Eligible weapons: Black powder long guns with either flint or > percussion ignition; single shot flint or percussion pistols and cap > and ball revolvers. No black powder cartridge guns or modern in-line > guns. (All pre-1870's type guns?) > > 2.) Sights and Ammo: Loose black powder charge with a patched > roundball only. No conical, minie or Maxie bullets. Open sights > only, (No telescopic, tubular or aim-point type sights.) > > The kind of events will take some planning but what I have in mind for > now could be long gun paper targets at various ranges, some type of > pistol event, and novelty targets, (i.e. swinging target, "split the > ball", etc.) All of this can be decided later but right now all I > need to know if there is interest. Below are a few simple questions > for you to answer if interested which will greatly help in > planning. Just add your answers below on this e-mail and return it > back to me.
