Great inaugural shoot at Associated Gun Clubs of Maryland! Winter weather was the norm with Sat being overcast, snow, and freezing rain. Sunday saw overcast, COLD, and wind... Still 10 shooters braved Mother Nature and 4 of em made Rifleman to boot! I of the theory that some of our best classes are held in the worst weather, and this one confirms yet again, that those willing to brave the weather, WANT to be there and give it their all!

Congrats to our 4 new Winterseed Riflemen, and sincere thanks to our host club and instructors! We're trying like heck to make AGC one our regular stops for next year and beyond...

I haven't been that cold for a full weekend since I used to teach skiing years ago- Winterseed for sure!

A great bunch of students turned out, worked hard, and performed very well in challenging weather. A new venue provided its own source of challenges- but we will be looking forward to hopefully more events next year at AGC Marriottsville!
