Welcome to the Rio Salado Sportsman’s Club Black Powder web site.
Our goal is to provide a safe and fun format for Black Powder
shooting events. If you’re a new shooter or an experienced Muzzle
Stuffer, we have something to offer you.
Many times people “inherit” Black Powder rifles
and don’t know how to shoot them. We can help. If you’re interested
in joining us for the first time, you can contact me ahead of time
or just show up at a shoot. We will partner you up with one of our
shooters and provide one-on-one instruction. You’ll be “in the
black” in no time.
If you’re interested in trying Muzzle Loading
but don’t have the equipment, give me a call. We will provide a
rifle and a shooter so you can see how much fun it is. We shoot
paper and steel silhouettes on alternating months. We also shoot
pistol and shotgun.
The second Sunday is usually our rifle shoot
and the fourth Sunday is usually our pistol and shotgun shoot. Our
schedule is subject to change so please contact me if you have any
questions. Muzzle Loading shoots are on the Small Bore Range.
We also shoot Black Powder Cartridge Rifles.
BPCR shoots on the third Sunday at 12:00 following High Power
Silhouettes on the High Power Range. This can be shot with
smokeless powder and your choice of sights.
Please remember juniors shoot for free.
If you have any questions or comments, feel
free to contact me. We hope you enjoy all that Rio Salado
Sportsman’s Club has to offer.
