Hi! First post.

My name is Bryan and I'm a 60 year old physician north of Boston and I've been into airguns for three years. My girlfriend was a US Army sharpshooter in the Gulf War in her mid 20's, and she got me into it. We have a CMP 853 .177 and shoot at Olympic targets at 10 meters.

I was referred here by the guys at GTA because I won the gold medal in the 10m rifle offhand match a couple of times with scores of 163/200 and most recently 174 / 200. They tell me that you guys typically get scores of 540 / 600 or higher and that's where I want to be.

I'm looking to learn anything I can that will make me a better shooter. Looking forward to talking to you all.

Best,

Bryan

Hi Bryan

I live in Southern NH and there are a number of good junior teams around. Reading, Taunton, Hudson NH (my team) and Maspenock (they may have ended the rifle program though), and a bit further north is Peterboro/Keene. Pretty sure Braintree may have a program too.

Want to learn how to shoot better maybe volunteer as a coach. Take a USAS/NRA rifle coach certification program (often taught at Reading once a year) and or introduce yourself to those programs I mentioned. That way you can get taught and also teach a new generation of shooters.
