June can usually be quite toasty for events, but this one was just about perfect.
We had 6 students on Saturday and 5 on Sunday.
This group learned and soaked up the material like sponges. The fire hose of knowledge was not a problem for these folks. 4 were returning students, 2 were new students as well as fairly new to firearms. Have to say, I didn't realize they were that new as they ran those rifles as if they had been shooting for years! Nice work.
Raymond, a returning rifleman proved he did know what he was about by re-qualifying with a 222 on Sunday. His friend Matt, scored a 211!!
Great job guys!
Scores on Sunday had everyone in the upper marksman/sharpshooter range most of the afternoon. Some more practice and we'll have some more riflemen and riflewoman.
Thank you all for coming out and sharing our heritage this weekend.
Thank you to my instructors for making this a great weekend.
Staff this weekend.

What could possibly be a better way to spend the weekend?
-amazing facility
-terrific views
-enthusiastic participants
-dedicated staff
-unbelievably mild weather
Add some Rifleman scores, some 'interesting' rifle issues to sort out, incredible positive attitudes, and you've got a Hat Creek Appleseed!
A unique thing I noticed Sunday on the AQT targets, the entire line would score within 20 points of each other on almost every AQT. This is something I have not seen previously. And the very cool part about it was watching the scores go from unqualified, to marksman, to sharpshooter !
Job well done, and thank you for your perseverance.
Sounds like good instruction to me.

I truly enjoyed this weekend. The timing was perfect, being the weekend before Patriot's Day.
The Hat Creek Rifle and Pistol Club Range is a fantastic facility. The mountain elevation kept the temperatures mild. The covered firing line kept us out of most of the sun. Picnic tables under the trees for our lunch and story time.
The students were attentive and worked hard. They made my job of teaching IMC for the first time easy! :-) . Thank you.
Laurie, Joe, and April were a pleasure to work with.
And right before Patriot's Day! :-)
I hope to see all of you again soon.
