“This is an AWESOME website! You should all unload your rifles and pat yourselves on the back. I'm a former USAF Marksmanship instructor and thought I'd try you folks on for size. I require further study and will be back. You are a benchmark for all states in the U.S. Thanks again for a very valuable resource.”
