Was a lovely spring day, 4/19/2015. Only rained sideways, never upwards. Got out just as river rising 
up to the entry road at Watauga Gun Club in Boone, NC. 249 on last course of the day. Scoped 22LR upper on AR lower. Great history lesson NOT taught in schools.

Ramsuer 3/15, Engineer Shooting was the SB, I was next to Forrest.  Score 211?  I think.  PHenry sprained his foot.  Learned a lot, I'm finally on the forum...

Ramsuer, 9/6/2015, 216 thanks to the loan of a rifle and the great, patient, help from the instructors. I learned what I had hoped to, and appreciate all those who helped. Frank

Last day of Rifleman's Boot Camp (10/9/15) at Ramseur, NC (10-15!). Came close twice during the week, but was quite frustrated at the "WALL." As it turned out this was a good thing because you learn more from failure than immediate success.  I concentrated on the essential principles to break through the WALL. Found out on the last day that I was not getting a proper cheek weld from my rifle, which was MY WALL. Bill and his son Will lent me their rifle. It took one AQT to get used to the rifle and the second AQT I scored a 222.

Hi folks.  Just completed my first Appleseed with ThePoet in the rain and scored my Rifleman patch with scores of 220 and 228 back to back.

Really enjoyed the program and hope to be able to continue to participate as I much as I can.

Thank you very much to all those who volunteered their time, effort and equipment to make such a fantastic weekend possible.  I definitely didn't think I'd learn that much going in but the quality of the training and the attention to detail is far and away better than most other training classes I've taken that cost a lot more money.

For now I'll be trying to convince the wife that its a good idea for me to try a winterseed up in Ramseur...I put my odds at about 20:1  ~~:)

Thanks again and hope to see y'all soon.

ThePoet

Thanks for coming out and enduring the rain and cold.  You did a great job!  We hope to see you and your wife at a future event.

Oct 20, 2012 - Ruger 10/22 "LTR" (Tech Sights). 

Uh, score, enough to be a Rifleman :D  Seriously forgot.  But, I'll never forget shooting that group in my avatar photo - that was from sitting and I hit the 'zone' Rifleman's Cadence and just crushed it.  All due to exceptional instruction.

Swung back by tonight planning to bring my Dad to an Appleseed this Spring and to reconnect with this fantastic community.

Ramseur, 20 March 2016, score of 222 - long time coming, lots of assistance, instruction, encouragement, and a polite "boot where it counted" as needed. Terry and Cindy were kind enough to lend me their 10/22 (seeing as my Springfield M1A had ejection issues with the installed scope - not uncommon, I understand), and after a "Redcoat," a sighter square, and a bit of refamiliarizing with a "normal" 10/22 bolt release, hit the required score on 2nd AQT. Great job, Terry, Cindy, Bill, Toy, and Lawrence, and THANK YOU for your patience!  :bow:

Ramseur, March 20 2016. Scored a 241 on the first AQT of the day - I could not beat that one! (Savage Mk II BTV).

Excellent instruction by all the bosses - Lawrence was shoot boss for the event.

April 17 in Waxhaw, NC. Scored a 222. Had a great time, I'd like to thank Pain Killer and yankeedoodle and the others (I can't remember your forum handles) for such great instruction.

Patriots Day 2016 at Ramseur was the first time I shot with a loop sling since leaving the Marine Corps.  I don't recall my score, but I seem to have a patch that indicates adequate performance.

Shoot Boss KARDIAC KID and the other instructors did a fine job running the event.  They were even kind enough to take a few of us to the KD range.  Most importantly, I had a lovely day with my wife.

I believe in the mission of Appleseed and I am willing to contribute.  For what it is worth, I am a licensed Attorney.  Please let me know how i can help.

I qualified April 19, 2015 in the pouring rain after equipment failures and on a borrowed tricked out 10/22 from Forrest I think? Last AQT of the day and a score 214. Never give up and go home! Doing on Patriots Day weekend was unreal! Sadman was the shoot boss.

Jzody

After two Appleseed events I hit rifleman on December 3, 2017. I was on the range down on Waxhaw, NC at Charlotte Rifle and Pistol club.

I had so much fun and will probably keep coming back for fun.

Mr.McCain

Ramseur N.C. 1/20/19, slid in with a measly 213, using an A2 clone, standard open sights and m193 ammo.

Had a blast and cant wait to do it again

Checking in from the Triad area.

I participated in my first Appleseed event this past weekend, 9-10 March 2019, down in Martin, Georgia. I shot a 217 on my 3rd AQT attempt and that was followed by a 220. As mentioned this was my first Appleseed. I want to attend an event in Ramseur as it is only an hour from me and I need to get a "Distinguished" tab  ;)
How do I reload?

New Rifleman 12/15/19 Charlotte Rifle& Pistol - Shoot boss was Steve
235/239 and somehow made 240 ??? after fighting a host of bad habits and feeding issues.
