blackpowder ranges/shooting groups anyone?

[magyar]

Considering a move to Boston area but have heard nightmares about bringing my guns in and finding a place to shoot them. I would like to know if there are options out there for us blackpowder folks to shoot. Any traditional shooting groups around? Obviously most indoor ranges say a big no! Any help would be appreciated. No p[reference as to location because we dont even know where we will relocate to in the area.

thanks

I'm closer to the Worcester area (central MA) where chief's are more likely to issue you an unrestricted MA firearms license.

Singletary rod and gun club has a VERY active black powder group with both a summer and a winter league. http://www.singletaryrodandgun.com/
I also shoot my BP arms at Hopkinton Sportsmen's club http://www.hsasports.com/ and they have an active NSSA group that meets there.

Good luck.

Braintree R&P has a group that shoots BP every Friday evening, year round (from what I'm told).

And yes you can shoot BP pistols in one of BR&P's indoor ranges. I've seen people do it and it gets vented out immediately (no stink) via our HEPA air-handling system.

Any outdoor range will let you shoot blackpowder, and there are many clubs in eastern MA.
