Sad day when I cant even find .22LR to be able to attend.

We had a family at the Biloxi Appleseed that paid $17 bucks a 100 for 22lr so they could come out and shoot... just crazy. We are modifying the usual COF just a bit to slow down the ammo drain without watering down the instruction. However for the folks who have ammo and want to hammer out AQT's we will still be able to accommodate them too.

Mark let me know what you need in a PM and I'll dig around. I passed on a 1400 round bucket cabelas had in stock this morning online, if I would've known I would've gotten it.

Freedive, I have 1,100 rounds of CCI Mini Mag HP. my mosquito won't shoot them. You interested?

What are the times of day for the participation on each day? How many rounds are needed? What is the course of fire?

We start at 830 each day and run through about 430. The "COF" is rifle marksmanship instruction using a USGI sling in basic field shooting positions (prone, sitting, standing). We used scaled targets to simulate 100 to 400 shots. More information here:

If you are interested, contact me: dplunkett@cox.net or 504-701-4167.
If you need ammo to attend, there may be a way to solve the problem.
