A competitive shooting sport using vintage military rifles.

This competition is fired with single-shot .22” Long Rifle firearms, using either iron sights or telescopic sights.  Firing is done from the prone, kneeling and standing (and occasionally sitting) positions.  Distances to targets are 50 feet, 50 yards, 100 yards, (and 50 meters for International competition).  Time limits are very generous; essentially the time limits are designed to make sure we go home for dinner!

Muzzleloading is a discipline of patience, tried and true.  Your one shot in the “old days” could mean the difference in survival or feeding your family, so you learned then, as now, to make that “one shot” count.

CFRPC offers NRA sanctioned Across the Course and Mid-Range matches, as well as CMP approved Vintage Rifle events.  Be sure to check the online match schedule for the latest changes.

Central Florida Carbine matches allow shooters to focus on building their semi-auto rifle/carbine maneuver skills, as well as various other techniques in the employment, speed, and manual of arms of your chosen platform.

The guns used in Black Powder Cartridge Rifle Silhouette are single shot rifles, either original or reproductions of guns available from 1860 through 1890, chambered for black powder cartridges available during this period.
