Title: Dunbarton, NH July 25-26, 2026 25M Rifle AAR
Post by: MattNH on July 27, 2026, 08:23:30 AM
Twelve Americans gathered on a beautiful summer weekend to learn about our shared heritage and rifle marksmanship.  We had six states represented on the line: NH, MA, VT, CT, RI, and NY. Thank you for making the trip. Thank you to Pioneer Sportsmen for hosting us for the third time this year, and for the upcoming 25M rifle clinic scheduled for October 24-25.

We had Zak of NH at his first Appleseed earn his patch with a 221 on Saturday and he followed it up with a 219 and a 225 on Sunday. HUZZAH !!! He did this with a bolt rifle equipped with Tech Sights. Great job Zak. Chris of NY re-qualified (218, 226, 227) and RangeDog got some shooting in on all of our AQTs (226, 236, 219, 230).

Galen of NH worked hard all weekend and improved. Barb and her grandson Owen of NY put some impressive groups on target.  Glen of RI, Art of MA, Ryan of MA, and Dan of VT soaked up the instruction, a Rifleman persists. Larry and Logan of CT had some great father and son time at the range.  Allana of NH was awesome for her first time firing a rifle.

Team Wolverine racked up an impressive 51/75 on the Parker's Revenge, nice teamwork Larry, Chris, Barb, and Owen. 

mmirate earned his 50 shoot pin, thank you Milo for your dedication. D360 earned his NH state instructor patch and DoctorE did an awesome job at his first shoot as a IIT.  Brent1775 was awesome as always.

I do like having the canopies over the shooters.

That's so awesome Chris and Barb made it with their grandson, Owen! What a great shoot to spend time with the family. I love it!  :1luvu

Always a great time with the NH Cadre. Wish I was there to share in the fun.

I agree, Brian. Shooting under the canopies is much better.  ;D
