I went back in September. You are going to enjoy it, weather should be good and the instruction is excellent. Would definitely do it again if it wasn't right before Christmas.I'm gonna be in Ramseur this weekend (12/21 & 12/22) for my first Project Appleseed event. 'Bout time!
Anyone else going?
I have been to many many many events that trained and taught me about a WIDE variety of things. This event was one of the best I have ever attended. I loved it. I hope you do, too.I'm gonna be in Ramseur this weekend (12/21 & 12/22) for my first Project Appleseed event. 'Bout time!

One thing, bring some elbow pads. Seriously. Working prone positions for two days wore the skin off both my elbows and they were bleeding for two days. Of course, I was wearing short sleeves at that time, but it's a mistake I won't make again.Thanks for the well wishes, y'all! I'm really looking forward to it.
I cobbled together a LTR (out of a 10/22, of course) and sighted it in yesterday. Got some good groups, but didn't get the POA = POI exactly before we got last call at the range. (Which is probably good, since Frostbite the Noman was starting to shake my elbows...) I also weeded out some borrowed mags that didn't function worth a [naughty word]. I have fewer than I'd like, but I think they're reliable.
I've opted for open sights (Tech Sights) despite my aged eyeballs. Since I don't (yet) wear glasses at every waking moment, I'd like to qualify w/o magnification. However, I'm bringin' the scoped Marlin 60 just in case...
This is solid advice. Don't get the hard plastic capped military style either, they recommend you not use those kind because it's hard to maintain stability rocking around on them.One thing, bring some elbow pads.
