Black Powder - any ranges or shops that cater to the oldies?
In all my years at the ranges, I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen anyone doing black powder. Are there any ranges where these types of guns are encouraged or popular? The only shop I know of in the region so far that kinda caters to us is Sportsmans Supply Co in Butler with a small selection of balls and percussion caps.
Any ranges or shops I should check out?
