The [National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association (NMLRA)](/handbook/org-nmlra) started organized muzzleloading competition back in 1933. These folks decided that shooting had gotten too easy with cartridges and set out to preserve the old ways.

Start with NMLRA charter clubs -- their website lists clubs by state. Many clubs shoot at private ranges designed for muzzleloading, with covered loading areas and appropriate distances. Some conventional ranges accommodate black powder during specific times, but call ahead.
