it was a great shoot! I'm very happy to have backed up my rifleman score 211 an 216(with a misfire)! I especially enjoyed getting some shooting time in with my dad, his health isn't real good , so I'm trying to get some quality time in. My nephew could score rifleman pretty easy, if we can get him to focus on the task. thanks to Dave D and Hawk for the excellent instruction! :~

Dave,

You and yours are welcome to any Appleseed! A fine bunch of folks.

We did have a good day. The weather was a bit contrary but above freeezing at least.

See you all again soon,

What a nation has done, a nation can aspire to.
Dr. Jerry Pournelle

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

Thanks to Dave and Hawkhavn for a great day.

Thanks to my fellow shooters for coming out and starting to bail.

One more cook has moved on to a new position. Are we melting down these old frying pans for Ruger to make into 10/22 barrels or what?

Blessings,
Bill

What is a mini shoot compared to the "regular" weekend of Appleseed?
Fierce defiance

Miguel,

We may just work on one or two positions, not the full telling of the history.
Think of it as 'Intro to Appleseed' or knocking the rust off for someone who has been to a full weekend.

Mar 28 mini was a great day! Very helpful and got me more excited about the upcoming Lafayette Appleseed.
I guess I'm currently wielding a frypan but eyeing the buckets and those who bail with increased admiration. <:)

Thanks DaveD and hawkhavn and congrats to Bill of Rights and unforgiven1203!

Thanks,  Jeff

Weather forecast looks good for Saturday. I'm bringing my LTR to loan out. See you there!

Edit: Forecast changed... probable rain. I love Indiana.

Edit: Rain held off - we had great weather! (I still love Indiana.)
