Well another awesome 25 meter rifle clinic at the Monroe Sportsman Club in Conneaut, OH is in the books.

What a great event we had this past weekend. Saturday was just a gorgeous weather day and everyone enjoyed being outside. Sunday was a little rain and some wind, but we moved the canopies and we were able to keep mostly dry while we shot the course of fire. We saw some great improvement from the students throughout the weekend. Two youth shooters were introduced to the shooting sports for their first time ever shooting rifles. Thank you to the local Trail Life chapter for bringing them. They certainly learned a lot and they were safe the whole weekend. And, they were a pleasure to have on the line.

A big thank you to Avery for bringing the cannon! Yes, you read that correctly. He brought a cannon and he even fired it off for us after he gave a very informative presentation on artillery of the period. Any pictures of this would be awesome.

Congrats to those that made the magical 210 or greater score on those AQT's and especially the hits count targets that were cleared throughout the weekend. Ryan cleared it three times! seing Calvin knock out those AQT's and with a 246 to boot!

Thank you to all that attended this weekend and a big thank you to the Monroe Sportsman Club for providing the range and for having lunch available both days.

Sounds like a great shoot!  Congratulations on the new orange hat and for having such an awesome range that you can fire a cannon. 

Who has cannon envy? :whistle:  :whistle:  ;D

Can someone please tell the lady in the purple shirt her scope mount is backwards?
