Who we are and what we're about:
The Appleseed Program is designed to take you from simply being a rifle owner to being a true
rifleman. All throughout American history, the rifleman has been defined as a marksman
capable of hitting targets 500 yards away — no ifs, ands or buts about it. This 500-yard range is
traditionally known as "the rifleman's quarter-mile;" a rifleman can hit just about any target he
can see. This skill was particularly evident in the birth of our country, and was the difference in
winning the Revolutionary War.
Ladies, shooters under 21, and Active Duty/Reserve/Guard with MIL ID shoot FREE
What You Will Learn:
Six Steps to firing a shot, sling usage, sight adjustment, Inches, Minutes, Clicks, and your
Heritage as an American Rifleman. Much of the instruction takes place on reduced-size targets
at 25 meters, so there’s lots of shooting without a lot of walking to check targets.
