Charlie what was the name of the dry firing kit that you mention in the class?

It's called an I.O.T.A. (indoor optical training aide)

thank you guys for making this happen it was great class.

Thanks for everything! I had a great time and learned a lot, . This was the second "A" class I've been to and I can see the improvement. I'm still slow but I shot much better than my last class. It is really amazing that you guys give your time to getting this sport opened up to new precision shooters.

Cheers!

Thank you so much for holding this clinic. I learned a ton!
See you next Sunday. You new guys better be there. Don't worry about coming in last, Steven has us covered.

Michael

It was a great group today guys. Everyone took the input and instruction well, and really tried to implement changes for the most part. I saw improvement in a number of the shooters, and we were able (for the most part) to get equipment issues taken care of on those rifles that had them.
I'm glad all those people that made it out today did so; this was my first time assisting at a CAPRC clinic, and the caliber of the shooters today made me glad I took my Sunday to help out.

Thanks to the rest of the CAPRC guys on the line today, and an especially big thanks to Mike and Randall for the food prep; delicious as usual.
Charlie, great job again; it seems like you've really gotten into the groove for the classroom portion since my "A" clinic. Also, I think you need to work on your shotgunning some; if we're attacked by water bottles at close range, we're screwed. ;)

Thomas (the guy in MARPAT)

Yeah, my shotgun & pistol skill suck.

Thank you for noticing. We are all volunteers, nobody gets paid a dime to help and run CaPRC. In fact, it personally costs us time and gas money to put on clinics and matches with all the running around to the range, stores, Kinkos, Home Depot, etc for supplies. We do it because we love the sport and want to see it grow. We only ask that you help support CaPRC when you can by attending our events, and eventually volunteering to help out when you can. With everybody working towards the same goal, we hope to do good things in tactical/precision rifle shooting in So Cal. On that note, I was impressed as a whole by the shooters today. The level of shooting and improvement was excellent. Now, you guys need to do the real work: Putting everything you were taught into effective practice. The B clinic is about gathering dope out to 600 yards, you need to have your fundamentals down for that to happen.

Good Job today shooters... Hope to see you all at a match...

Charlie, great teaching today, especially for being sick...

Sorry I missed the shooting portion.

Nice pics, Solomon.

Can you post them on Calguns as well?

Just noticed this one:



Whose Disco?

I think it belongs to the guy in the green boonie cover.

Yeah John, I saw it and immediately thought of you....

Thank you.

Just chiming in with a big thanks to all the volunteers, Charlie, who nailed the classroom and hot-weather torture tests, the fellow who loaned me his mat (no, it turns out that inflatable sleeping bag pad really doesn't work well) the guys who manned the grill, and everyone else who came with great attitudes. Look forward to more shooting with you. Downside of day: reconvinced I need to shorten my barrel, put on a good brake, and lighten the trigger (maybe a different stock too... the factory stock just doesn't feel right, can't get comfortable with it.)

Thanks for posting the photos

I'm still sort of surprised that you're not dead.

I thought he was recruited by the Golden Bear High power rifle guys.

Thanks a lot guys, I learned a lot. I can also see that i would really benefit from a stock with an adjustable cheek rest...my stock rem sps varmint stock sucks ass.

Thanks a lot for holding this clinic guys. I learned a lot and know what I need to improve on. Hopefully you'll see me at a match sometime soon.

Also, thanks to Mike and Randall for the killer food.

Thank you very much for holding this clinic, I had a great time and learned a lot, my rifle scope was too much forward that need to be fix. Thanks all the volunteer you guy are awesome, great BBQ and Charlie great instructor. Hope to see you guy in the up coming event, nice photo.

Just wanted to thank all involved volunteers for taking time to put on this excellent clinic.Prior to sun and muzzle blast kicking my ass sucks to be me now and then I had a great time and I learned a ton the classroom was great the food tasty and limited shooting I did informative and well worth it again thanks to all hope to be able to pay it forward in the future.

One thing I am not sure got mentioned, but Nathan of Short Action Precision donated the water and Gatorades for the class. Be sure to thank him and give him a chance to earn your business the next time your in need of a scope, accessories, etc.

Mike no thanks from any one is needed! I appreciate being able to come and show off our products! Wish I could have stayed till the end but a pregnant wife had other plans!! If any body is looking for triggers or Bipods or anything else you find that was not up to par at the clinic hit me up.
