Old Pueblo Muzzleloaders

[Farmer John]

Was a member of Old Pueblo Muzzleloaders in Tucson many years ago (abt 1975-80) - Just checking in to see how things have changed,
We shot at the 3-Points Range, west of Tucson, which was managed by the Tucson Rifle Club - .22 Silhouette all the way up to 1000 yard range.

Some of the Old Pueblo shooters come down to Hog Canyon near Sonoita to shoot with the Montezuma Muzzle Loaders.

Welcome from Upstate New York's Central-Leatherstocking Region.

Things have changed. A lot. Everywhere you look. Remember $9.99/lb FFg? Remember $2.99 for 100 #11 caps? Remember Tom Fuller 7/8" flints at $0.99 each? No more.

Range is still there but upgraded, nice check-in main building now, better shooting areas with benches and range control flashing lights. OPML still shoots third Sunday of the month.

I grew up in Tucson. Wish I had gotten into shooting earlier while I was there.

The times I've shot out at 3 points it's a pretty active range, with lots of different types of competitions being shot. I've done the .22 BPCR and .22 Shilohette only. I live on the far side of town, it takes about 1 hour to drive out there. That's one thing that's changed in the 25 yrs I've lived here - traffic. Very slow on the highway for about 3 hrs every day morning and afternoon rush hours. Town routes no better.
