1 - Shoot my rifles at least once a month.
2 - Shoot my rifles at least 2-3 times a month.
3 - Qualify in at least one competitive shooting sport.

It's sad. I just never got back into shooting regularly after buying and remodeling my house.

Mitch Rapp · Feb 8, 2012

I want to get more accurate with my pistol, and I want to do some long range shooting with my rifles.

I've been doing that. Problem is now we have too many shooters at the Heartland Matches now.

RyanReed · Feb 8, 2012

1. Make Master in CDP (it will be my 3rd IDPA Master title)

Ben-Sons · Feb 20, 2012

February update.

1. Getting my USPSA classification. (complete)
2. Shooting at least 20 matches/comps (5down)
3. Competing in my 1st multi gun match (complete)
4. Attend at least 1 professionally instructed pistol class.
5. Learn to use the reloading setup I've had in the garage for 5years!!! (changing this goal, now it's "purchase and use the hell out of a progressive")
6. Bring a new shooter, again... (first guy got DQ'd, pouted, left, and swore he wouldn't return)

Thanks for a warm welcome and great advice, this forum has made the comp side of shooting much more enjoyable and less intimidating.

Iggie · Mar 2, 2012

1. Be a better person(/shooter)
2. Practice more
3. Learn to use the front sight better/more(point shooting puts them on targetjust not accurate enough)

I would totally claim you if I could be there but I have to work. I already brought one new guy to Heartland this year and apparently he's inviting some friends also. It's like a pyramid scheme only you lose money instead of making money.
