2 Day Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship Course Manchester, TN October 8 & 9

[Guest TNdad]

Project Appleseed is a nationwide program that teaches rifle marksmanship skills that have been passed down from generation to generation and reconnects Americans with the people and events of colonial America. Participants are taught skills that allow a Rifleman to be accurate out to 500 yards using a standard rifle with iron sights and surplus ammunition. This ability is traditionally known as mastering the "Rifleman's Quarter Mile" and is an American tradition that has been part of this nation from its very first days. So join us and hear some little-known Revolutionary War history, reaffirm your heritage, and make America a better place.

Anyone here done this before? We have talked about it in our family but wanted to hear from folks who have done it.

Gatersb, most of the instructors have loaners if that's the only thing keeping you from attending. I'll be at this event and will have a scoped 10/22 and a 795 with Tech sights to lend. Let me know if you register and I'll save it for you.

Vaiger, take a look at this link that has a lot of blogs/outside posts about Appleseed events.
