It was a terrific weekend of marksmanship and heritage, with 8 shooters on the line Saturday, and 6 on Sunday.
Saturday revealed Jason as a new Rifleman at his second AS event, with a 221 - great job, Jason!
And Sunday, Michael C gave himself and his proud dad a great Father's Day gift, earning his Rifleman patch on the very last AQT - huzzah!
A great and productive time was had by all, despite bursts of heavy wind and rain.  Michael, Tim, and Louis made big strides during their first AS - hope to see you guys on the line at the next shoot!  Ted and Logan returned to the line Saturday, and Ted continues to move in towards a Rifleman patch (207, this weekend).  Practice and persevere, gentlemen!

And of course, many heartfelt thanks to MrPete, Smoakingun, and CableGuy for turning to and making this a great shoot!

Sounds like it was a great shoot and that you were able to deal with the weather fairly well.

Our newest Rifleman (Michael) was seen putting his skills to work!  Michael was accepted into the CFRPC Smallbore program and was seen punching the x-rings out of targets.  The CFRPC Smallbore program has been the start for several All-Americans and at least one Olympian.  It is satisfying to watch the future take shape.  Geo can be very proud of his son and I am honored I got to spend last weekend with them.
