The Alexandria Gun Club Outdoor range hosted their 4th AS this pass weekend. 10 shooters attended and this was a dedicated group. Saturday's weather was horrible as the weatherman missed his mark. It rained most of the day with whipping winds and lower than expected temps. Despite the conditions rifle instruction and our history was well received throughout Saturday. All shooters returned on Sunday. The sun came out, things dried out and after some review the shooters started to work through AQTs. By days end we had two new Mn Riflemen. First was Jason L. who at his first event shot a 227 w/ his Marlin tube fed. Jason had put in a lot of pre event work and it showed. Next Megan O.(MollyJo) scored a 213. Megan will be 12 in a couple of weeks and this was her 5th event. Megan also stepped up and was presented with a Blue Hat by the Shoot Boss Buzz.
Thanks again to the Alex Gun Club and all that attended.
Photos will be posted shortly......

Thank you to BuzzG for coming all this way to Alex to be shoot boss. We appreciate all your time and hard work. You are welcome at our place anytime, Buzz. We enjoyed having you. Congratulations to the Rifleman, Jason and Molly Jo. You worked hard and it paid off. The rest of the shooters, continue to use the 6 steps and don't forget about the 7th step. ;)

I'd like to thank all of the instructors for all the hard work you put into that event. It was a great Father/Son experience for Dalton and I! It may take some time but I'll get the videos downloaded and sent to you Deb. Thanks again!
