Today was an outstanding shoot, and my first 1 Day event.. Weather was typical hot sticky MD summer, with a mix of sun and clouds..  14 students filled the line and a good group it was. The pace was fast, and once we got everyone thru the squares targets, things moved briskly.. everyone was pushed at a challenging pace. The end result was several students on the brink of hitting the magic 210 mark, and one student who made Rifleman convincingly scoring the 220's back to back, and then and "off" target of 212 due to a malfunction. A safe and fun time was had in a brisk 10 hr day on the line...I suspect we'll see many of these folks back soon at our normal 2 day events.. Thanks to all for a great shoot, and remember that a Rifleman persists!   BeSwift

Fun and safety-conscious set of shooters at the Annaloplis 1-day AS made the event very enjoyable!
