Project Appleseed is dedicated to teaching every American traditional marksmanship skills and the history of our nation's founding. Many of the stories we tell involve the events surrounding the battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775. This year April 19 falls on a weekend and we are trying to fill firing lines across the country to celebrate.

This is the most cost effective rifle training available anywhere in the country. Adults are $60, minors are $20, and active duty military, police, elected officials and people with physical disabilities are free.

We teach three position shooting utilizing a G.I. web sling. Without bags, rests, or bipods you can learn to make hits on silhouettes out to 500 yards with iron sights. Anyone can do this, it's just a matter of learning the fundamentals of shooting and practice. At one of our 25 meter clinics, we will teach the skills to consistently shoot -1" groups, or 4moa. That 1" group at 25 yards is no harder to accomplish than a 20" group at 500 yards. The key, and what we focus on, is how to achieve natural point of aim, or NPOA.

Every shooter, no matter how skilled, can benefit. All are welcome on the line. My daughter started at 7 years old with next to no experience. Our shoots have high instructor to student ratios, so everyone can get the attention they need to improve.

On the weekend of April 18-19, there are events in Blue Ridge, Dublin, Macon, and Toccoa. The one closest to Atlanta, in Roswell, is showing sold out.

For those with children, we often have subsidized ..22lr available for them to shoot. It's often CCI and costs $1.50-$2.00 a box. A normal round count will be 3-400 rounds for a weekend. If your kids need the ammo to be able to attend, PM me and I will contact the shoot boss to see if he will have some.

All you need is a rifle and ammo. It will be a tremendous advantage to have the rifle outfitted with a GI web sling, or 1907 style sling. A shooting mat or even a carpet remnant will be helpful to your knees and elbows. We shoot in every condition except lightning, so come prepared for what mother nature might bring.

I will answer or get the answer to any questions in the thread or through PM.


Every thing Is sold out, except Dublin and Toccoa.

Let me know if you have signed up, I'd like to follow up with you after the event.

I need to attend one of these but may not be able to in April. Great for adults and kids. Many of my weapons shoot better than I do , time to change that.
A good program.
