I was really glad that I made the trip to an unfamiliar area to find a shoot on this special day in our history. The weather couldn't have been better and the instructor crew was just as good. Thursday keep things going at a good pace and ran things well. Two former Riflemen took orange hats early in the day and added well to the great group of instructors.
We had a great group of shooters with all levels of experience. It was great to see a good youth showing. Everyone brought a learnable attitude and soaked up the info very well. Being limited to a one day shoot may have been the only thing that keep a few from reaching that coveted 210. There were no safety issues to speak of. We did have a few weird ammo failures, one round that fired and split the 10/22 mag and another that blew out the primer end. We guessed that these failures could have been due to to increased 22 production. I am sure there are many of the shooters that will attend another Appleseed and a few that I can see being future instructors.
Having come from 5 hours away, I would do it again in a heartbeat to work with great instructors and shooters like we had O0
