    It was around 400 feet, but that’s still absolutely nothing for an AR. My 65 year old mother was hitting a six-inch target at 300 ft her first time ever shooting.

    For comparison, Army recruits have to hit a human sized target at about 500 ft to qualify. And basically everyone qualifies.

      i think he might’ve been a tad bit nervous though. that seems quite reasonable.
