So awesome to see Americans get up off the couch in the cold, overcast weather to learn the tradition and heritage of American rifle marksmanship. Eight shooters left their comfy couches and joined us on the line to save the country. We got busy on the Redcoats and spent much of the rest of the weekend persisting through equipment issues with mostly borrowed rifles, mags, slings and even a yoga mat before setting the average score on Sunday's AQTs at 199! Not too shabby for a bunch of first-time attendees!

You guys made this event easy for the staff and I appreciate it. This was one of the "fun ones" (nothing like hearing grown men singing Taylor Swift songs!) and I can't wait to see y'all out on the line with some big boy rifles so we can put that Known Distance lesson to the test.

Don't forget to dry fire and get on them CMP rifles. Keep up the good work and I'll see y'all out on the line again soon.  :---

Sunday's AQT grind.


New Riflemen Chris & Jay. Mark & Scott weren't too far behind in the 200s and Brandon & Lee both scored over 190. Daniel broke two rifles Saturday and showed up Sunday to shoot his brand new Ruger with stock sights getting all the way up to a 179!  Matt couldn't make it back on Sunday but did really well Saturday shooting over 175 as well. All American Marksmen at this event. Huzzah!
