About Us:

The Stone's Trace Regulators are Charter Members of the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association and were formed in 1977. We are located on the grounds of Stone's Trace Historical Society in Ligonier, Indiana.

We are dedicated to encourage and advance the organized shooting of black powder muzzle loading firearms. Many of our club members have been recognized on a national level for their shooting abilities.

We offer many opportunities to participate in black powder shooting activities using muzzle loaders. We have monthly club shoots which can vary from woods walks and novelty targets to paper targets and steel clangers. During the warmer months we have line match shoots which are paper targets and are shot at the 25, 50 and 100 yard shooting range. The range is open for member use only.

The Stone's Trace Regulators Fall Rendezvous, in conjunction with the Stone's Trace Pioneer Festival every September (on the weekend following Labor Day), is a time when our families get together and camp in a pre-1840, reenactor style. We have many activities for the whole family.
