I would probably use irons as I am most deficient with them. And they are on almost everything (most common)

Some of us (all fingers pointing at me) have vision problems that preclude us from using irons anymore. I can't see the front sight at all without my glasses--and with my glasses, I can't see the target.
I tried with irons at my last AS and the best I could do was a 161. Later in the day, I swapped out to a scoped rifle and cranked out back-to-back Distinguished scores of 241 and 242. Getting old kinda sucks  |

I earned my patch in 2009 on an AR with iron sights. Almost 14 years later, I don't think these eyes are up to the task any more. I got down behind a Garand a few months ago at 400 yards. The target was a lot smaller and fuzzier than I remembered....

This really needs to be the year I get off my duff and go do some Appleseed shoots. Always wanted to but never have. Especially while my eyesight is still good enough for irons.

You will shoot about 150 rds on day 1. Day 2 is a recap and Shooting more AQT's. |
