Keep up the good work!

I am working on shoots for South Texas.  If you keep up your pace I just have to work harder.  Maybe other folks will follow suit and we can reach our Million Rifleman nation goal in 2010!   O0

See you on the trail,  :~

I'm all signed up and good to go.  Looks like Matt and Chris, the Stillwater IITs, are planning on coming too.  Man I love Badlands.  I'm planning on staying in the bunk house.  Good times are always had in that place!  

I can hear it now:  "BOOM... DING!!!"  Hot lead hitting steel silhouettes, baby.  Nothing else like it.  April is too far away!

p.s., those pictures in this thread from last year are a hoot!  It seems like a long time ago that I first earned my Rifleman's patch and took the orange hat, but it was actually less than a year ago.

I cant thank The school for letting us use this Outstanding sniper course..Yes the owner is a SNIPER INSTRUCTOR that holds training many times a year.. So if your looking to learn long rangeshooting that taught in the armed forces then Mr. Bobby whittington is your man..Did I say he was the head sheriff? Well he is lol and a great guy too..

Boy did we get alot of stuff done lastnight..The radio show seen lots of folks on line..

In the nut shell all is well and it going to be fun.For those that are following the trail we need to have a list of things to do..Yes that means PC's Each of you know your strong spots in Instructing so pick out something and be ready to say I'll do that..

I want to see all Instructors at the range  on Saturday by 7am we need to go over a few things...And for the ones that make it there Friday we will cover some highlights on KD ranges and whats is our goal for it...

I need to have paperwork on PC's I might have a few to hand out but not many..I need at least 2 of you to test out on redhat??Seems we need to get a few of you up and running so the ones that are headed toward master and Senior can move on to the next level in Appleseed..We need at least 2 Masters for the state so we can run bootcamps for the tri state area...



As for the Shooters coming to this event If you see something you like ..Let us know  and If you want to join us in Instructing just say so we'll get you started too..

Looks like a great weekend seeya soon thanks for the support on this ....
