This year marks the 150th anniversary of first-ever international rifle match, and the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association is celebrating the legendary Creedmoor 1874 competition with a historical recreation at the Oak Ridge Sportsman Association’s range in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, October 8-12. Black powder enthusiasts, collectors and shooters are encouraged to attend.

In 1874 at the Creedmoor Range at Long Island, New York, the Irish muzzleloaders faced the American breechloaders in a historic contest that is directly connected to today’s Leech Cup contested during the NRA National High Power Rifle Championships at Camp Atterbury.
