Title: Precision Rifle Appleseed
Post by: JoeZ on May 05, 2018, 03:11:17 PM
I have some interest in another precision clinic. If I get enough interest and help we could hold it again at the Sept shoot in Hubertus WI. Contact me here, email, phone or in person.

Does one use a scoped Rem 700 in 06 for precision shooting or is this for my Garand?
Inquiring minds want to know.

This is easiest with a scoped heavy bolt gun but a scoped precision semi can do it. You'll need a bipod or other rapidly deploying rest and the stage 4 target is 1.5 moa (3 inch at 200 yds) if I remember right.

By the response here, sounds like this is a go. As soon as I get another shootboss to sign up for the Sept shoot I'll post more details.

As I've never owned or even used one, can someone recommend a bi-pod for this usage? Going with the Remington 700.
Also does one use a bi-pod and a sling?
Thanks

Harris gets my money.

For some ideas:

No extra shoot boss has signed up so I guess this is not a go.

Maybe we could use one of Racine's events next year and that might give us more interest and a longer range. The Precision Appleseed doesn't replace the Legacy Appleseed but runs concurrent with it and that's why it needs two shoot bosses.

Quick question from a boarder raider.  What is a Legacy and Precision Appleseed?

Thanks

Legacy or traditional American marksmanship, utilizing the US GI sling and the SHF, is what we teach at a Project Appleseed marksmanship clinic. Precision marksmanship is a slower rate of fire with a more precise rifle/ammunition combination and allows for all sorts of deployable or improvised holds. I have developed a POI to run concurrent with our traditional program to utilize the existing clinics ranges, days, and to some degree, instructors.

how long of a range does one need to run a precision rifle Appleseed ?
what range requirements are there?

this sounds very interesting I would like to try it , I was unfortunately other wise committed in September.

The range I've done this at is only 200 yds. I use a 200% sized AQT and put a Shoot and See target in the top right corner for sighters. The stage 4 targets are a real challange! A longer range would be better because 200 yds requires no range or wind compensation.

I would be interested if I can make it work in my schedule.

sounds like a fun time I have a heavy barrel semi and a bolt that could play.
