No worries the firing line has a roof and is closed in on two sides on the right
Nice warm cozy Club house for lunch time

For those who haven't been to Hale Mountain, it is a great facility. Really a pleasure of a place to shoot. I shot this Appleseed last year, and it was excellent.

FYI: we stayed here: http://www.hillfarminn.com/ Nice little B&B with a variety of farm animals. If your wife and kids are coming along for the ride, as mine did, it's a nice spot.

Bennington went well....

Made it Saturday with the scoped 10/22, Sunday with the LTR!!!

Great facility (covered firing points in the rain!!!), great instructors. I believe we had 20-something shooters Saturday, and around 15 started Sunday, and I think we managed 5 Rifleman for the weekend. Buzzworth has the real numbers.

OK, I knoiw this is at least your second Appleseed, and you're now a Rifleman to boot.

Ready to take the NEXT step? I've got an Orange Hat waiting for you.

Hey, Bennington's having two more Appleseeds this summer but pre-regs are 0!

I hear the Shoot Boss will even fill your mags up for you if your thumb's sore.

"Chop, chop, Jeeves! The redcoats shan't wait all evening for you to finish preparing my magazines!"

And as I recall the gentleman that I was being a gentleman’s gentleman(That would be Chauncey) for did shot Rifleman (I told him had better or I would never be able to live it down.)
What ever will help someone make the cut.
He was shooting a bolt remmy I think (man! Those mag springs are stiff!)

Jeeves! INDEED...

Do come on up to the Bennington Shoot we will have a full staff of top notch Instructors for both June and August events
