One of the stated goals of Appleseed is to be able to shoot a rack grade rifle. The last Appleseed event I went to I was shooting a score of around 150 to 160. One of the instructors there suggested I try a different rifle. I shot a 194 with his rifle. that was the last AQT, so I dont know if I could have done better.
Should I upgrade to a better rifle? I was using a Marlin 795 with tech sights. The gun I shot the 194 with was a Ruger 10/22 with tech sights and work done on the trigger. It was a lighter trigger pull. Or should I work more on the idea that I need to be proficient with a rack grade rifle?
Is it normal to be a better shot or worse shot depending on the rifle?
Thanks
