Just wanted to let y'all know there will be another college rifle team for up and coming shooters to check out.

"The co-ed rifle team will be lead by CSU staff member Mike Greene and technical shooting expert Sergeant Mike Moore from Fort Benning. Mixed rifle is the only sport in the NCAA that allows both men and women to compete against one another on the same field. The team will be able to train and compete at what is quite possibly the finest shooting facility in the world, Fort Benning's Army Marksmanship Unit."

"We feel like this program can become competitive nationally very quickly," said Greene. "When shooters find out that they have a facility like the one at Fort Benning, it will be a huge drawing card for us and with a man like Sergeant Moore giving instruction, that just adds to the package."

Great news ! The 50 meter range is big enough to support the AMU shooters training and the colledge team at the same time. A good deal for all as the AMU shooters skills will help set the standard for the new shooters. Good Shooting Bill Horton

That is great. I hope that this becomes a trend with more universities picking up shooting teams. Building new ranges would be a great way to create jobs and put money back into the economy. On a related note, I've noticed that the University of Kentucky has some strong shooters this year.
