First, what are your thoughts/experience on the course?

Second, what rifle should I use? I have a 22 rimfire. I also have a Tikka 223 with a suppressor that is identical to my hunting rifle (7mm RM). I'm leaning towards the 223 since practicing is what I bought it for...

Do they even allow centerfire at appleseed? They have em at my local range pretty frequently and its been all rimfires.

This one says:

"
This is a traditional 25m Project Appleseed rifle event.

Both Centerfire and 22 Rimfire rifles are allowed at this event."

At 25-yards, I would use a rimfire.

I used to be an Appleseed instructor. You will find the "after the shot" feedback easier to pick up on with a rimfire. Centerfire does translate better to the "real world" as long as you are free from flinches and other accuracy robbing habits. Its great basic instruction that will benefit 90% of the shooting public.

Have fun!
