I like the idea of the Apppleseed project.
It would be fun to do the course with a flintlock...or at least show up and give a demonstration with a original 1780's to early 1800's era flintlock.
Now if I only knew where to get my hands on one of those....

As for Gl0ckGirl...
Excellent job !
Learning news ways to shoot and appreciate your rifle along with developing the skills to use it , are very rewarding.
Looking forward to seeing more of your shooting experiences and results here on the forum.

Something tells me I'd get booted off the line with that one - would be lots of fun to try though!

Congrats @Gl0ckGirl ... way to go on getting your Rifleman patch. I really need to get my rear down to an Appleseed event. @Flipper and @Kimber Custom do a fantastic job at the Rimfire Challenges and I can only imagine what they bring to the table during class instruction.

Signed up for the Appleseed in September in Ariel @ Wolverton Mountain Gun Club, going to pick up some 10-22s and get some practice in, also zero them for it.
Glad to hear that you had a good experience and earned your rifleman patch! I hope I can do the same.

I like the idea of being a Rifleman, not a "Rifle Person", silly PC nonsense, like changing the "Best Boy" credit in a movie to "Best Person". Man, Woman, Gender fluid transvestite , pronouns don't really matter, especially not for historical titles. What matters is can you get hits on target.

Congrats to the OP. I went to an event last year in Coeur D Alene.

I have a Rifleman patch but I'm not a Rifleman. I turned in an AQT halfway through the second day that was scored 229 I think. I went home and scored it myself later and the instructor who scored it is better at shooting than math. I think it was like 206. That night, I emailed the shoot boss a picture of the AQT because I don't want anything I didn't earn. He told me to hand the patch over the next event I attend and hopefully earn it.

The bummer is I threw away several AQTs that afternoon that were probably Rifleman scores.

Hope to attend this fall.
