I hope I haven't overlooked the obvious, but I can't seem to locate a listing of dates/locations to shoot the AQT waaaaaay-the-hell-over-there.
I would dearly love to shoot this with a Garand, but I can't make myself do it at 25m....
:wb:
Red Bluff California will offer Full Distance Appleseeds in 2011, schedule is pending approval.
Hi Dan,
I don't know that there is a definite designation for KD at a weekend Appleseed, without checking the range description. I think Fresno does KD (?) maybe Sac? Otherwise RBC is your best bet for 2 whole days of glorious KD with Riflemen to your left and right!
Dano is trying to get a group of 'seeds to make a semi regular showing at Ojai for the hi-power KD (I plan on getting in on that after the holidays!).
Finally, since you are now wearing an orange hat, Norcal22gal has 2 dates for Instructor KD 1 day shoots up in Red Bluff (I think) next year, Apr and Oct IIRC.
That's all I've got for now...
BTW... Nice Hat!
Andy

Yeah, I'm down with Ojai.
Re: Nice hat....
I like yours better....
Hie thee hence to a local highpower match at a full distance range. Close enough to an AQT to give satisfaction!

As previously noted:

I shot a little high power in a previous life. Great game, but it's just that:
A game.
Appleseed is for real.
A shoot is about more than the targets.
It's about the company you keep.

Got that right!

Check out http://www.brrc.org/
They hold monthly CMP Garand matches and Monthly "Across the course" 200, 300, & 600 Yd. matches.
That should satisfy your craving...... :~
Dang...half the year has passed already.
I say we just do it! There will never be a good time. I went shooting for the first time in May...the last real opportunity was when I took my hat in Oct!
1) We need a Senior Instructor
2) We need a weekend...I say August 27-28
I'm not trying to be discriminatory but it is the slowest weekend around (Ladyseed). The anti-discrimination cure is to just have more of these!
We could also do Aug 13-14 and close off Piru as an Instructor only shoot.
3) We need a place
4) We need shooters
Reasons are many; Something exciting to do before the Corona 210, we need to keep our skills up, we need community events to maintain OUR community....
Excuses are also many...but I won't give them any air time.
