Another great day on the line with 7 Americans (reduced class size due to COVID)... Temps hovered about 29 Deg for most of the AM, so this event was deemed Winterseed eligible.  Student rose to the opportunity to get that highly sought after achievement with 4 students making Rifleman!  Jan/Feb events seem to be some of our best, as the people who attend REALLY want to be there, and give it there all... Thanks to the students, volunteers, and host club AAFG for another great event.

Always a great time. BeSwift, Agent711 and... Bob (sorry, I forgot your forum handle, lol) did a great job of presenting the 6 steps and 3 strikes. It's a huge challenge to fit everything into a 1 day event, but they managed to hit all the important bits. I had brought a friend with me for his first event and he went from an unzeroed rifle (20 MOA off) to scoring 184 on his first AQT, then 215 on his second! Lucky duck managed to Winterseed at his first event (of course it was good instruction and his skill, but I know there are plenty of folks still chasing the mythical icicles).

Thank you all for a great event and some new friends!

... and that would be me (Bob).

As a border raider from Pennsylvania; was humbled by the impressive degree of passion, the level of commitment by BeSwift and Agent711, and the shooters who braved the weather conditions with the focused attitude shown on the line.

Well Done!

They posted two photos on the Maryland Project Appleseed Facebook page.

That was my first time at the Anne Arundel Fish and Game range.  I thought it was a very nice range for rimfire.

Plus a great event overall!
