Had a great event in Oak Harbor.  75° and sunny both days!  In Ohio.  At the end of October.   :cool2:

Thank you to the Oak Harbor Conservation Club for hosting us.  What a great facility.  And they have a 50-yard indoor range with 12 lanes.  I see some winter events in the future.... ;)

10 shooters came out to join us and stretch their rifles' legs out to 100 yards. 

All were seasoned Appleseeders, and that was reflected in their targets.  All shooters were grouping at 8 MOA or better on Saturday, improving to 6 MOA or better on Sunday. 

Fully half of our shooters earned their RFKD rocker!  Congratulations to Deb, Mike, Aaron, Richard and Cadence.  Most of the other shooters were knocking at the door in the high 30s (hits count AQTs, 40/50=Rifleman). 

Val - keep it up.  A little dryfire practice and I expect to not only see you with your patch shortly, but also in an Orange Hat!   &)
John and Lorri - both of you shot extremely well.  You're closing in on that Rifleman score!
John F - I know you flirted with 40 all weekend.  A little work on your positions and you should be there.
David - thanks for being our First Responder.  Glad we didn't need your services. 

My heartfelt thanks to Meadow, Chico and Pookie.  You guys were awesome and made my job easy.

Please feel free to post your own pics.  I was busy doing important SB stuff, so I didn't get many.   %)

On with some pics...

Thank-you ITB and Pookie for coming down to run the event. Also to Mark, Chico and Meadow.

A really safe and fun event.

Looking to do a 200 yd rimfire event when the opportunity presents itself.
"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the
whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they
lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader."
