First Appleseed! Had a great weekend!
A bit over a year and a half ago I decided I wanted to pick up a new 10/22 to play with and teach the kids. I found out about Appleseed around the same time and after getting a new 60th anniversary 22 moved to Idaho and was just totally busy all year. I put it together about 3 weeks ago. Shot maybe 150 rounds through it and took it to the event this weekend.
I haven’t shot a rifle at all in probably 20 years honestly. I shotgunned a lot as a kid and did some rifle hunting but never really had any training as far rifle marksman ship.
The class was fantastic, the instructors, the history, the format, were all great and you could tell some these guys were just as excited about the history as they were to shoot.
I quickly improved on my form and setup. I didn’t think I was gonna make it but I managed to just barely score a 210 and get my patch.
I’m actually pretty proud of myself and can’t wait for the next event I attend, maybe with the kids and hopefully a pistol class with the wife.
Huge shoutout to the instructors at the CDA event this weekend! Good work and thank you!
