Title: New Range and Appleseed event in Boone, NC
Post by: Pain Killer on October 12, 2013, 06:16:01 PM
Appleseeders, please come out and help us welcome the new Appleseed range in Boone, NC. This event will be on November 2-3 at the Watauga  Gun Club. The range is absolutely beautiful, with a large running stream behind the 300 yard firing line. It looks like a well manicured golf course, but the loud banging noises tell a different story.

Hot food will be served both days. On the first day, Salisbury steak and day 2 b-que chicken both with sides for $6 a plate. Proceeds to support the range.

Rimfire and centerfire are both welcome on the 25 yard range and there will be availability for 300 yard shooting for rifleman on day 2.

Hope to see you there!

Thanks to you and your crew for a great weekend of shooting and learning some early American history. The Watauga Club is has great setup and if there's a winter shoot I will be there with rifle in hand and fly rod ready to go. I look forward to attending another event soon and starting the process of becoming an RSO and Historian. Once again thank you.

X-Wing, it was great meeting you and talking with you about your career and new beginnings.  You made making rifleman look easy - nice work.  We still have a brightly colored hat ready if you are looking for one :)  .  I'll be there also for some wind and coolish type weather haha.
