Two riflemen made - congrats to Vinnie 223 and Robert 216, and we welcome Vinnie to the RWVA instructor corps.   ^:)^

Lots of other folks knocking on the door - Melissa with a 206 and David with a 200 - and everyone showing great improvement.  Keep practicing and come on back!

Did anyone wonder how that shelter got from one range to the other?



The Sunday line, in the Grind


The 'Pig Blast' fun shoot:  4 shooters per team, one 'mad minute'.  Target:  'Major Pigcairn' or 'King Porge'.  Objective:  De-snout the Redcoat pig with precision fire.  Winner:  Team Vinnie, by a nose.   ;D  You could also call this one "Angry Colonists"  %)


Rifleman Robert!


Vinnie steps up and takes an orange hat!  Welcome aboard!  (If anyone has a pic of Vinnie's Rifleman patch award, please post it!)

We really enjoyed working with you all, hope to see you down the trail at another shoot in the future.  Remember that 7th Step!

A big thank you to all participants, IITs and Nero & American Amazon for making the weekend such a blast (pun intended).  :---
Hope to see y'all back out there soon.
