    Great post! I appreciate all the pics to bring it to life. Well done!

    Despite the old, vintage ammo...it still shoots straighter than most marksman's capability.

    Took out the Stgw 57 (Sig 510) at 300 meters



    As both the rifle and the shooter warmed up, scores increased gradually




















    I finished with 10 shots on the field target

    And some 25 m shooting with a few Sig P210

    This is a 210-4 from the German border protection, made in the early 50ies (52 maybe) with Sig wooden sports grips



    A Swiss milsurp 210-2 which I had hard chromed



    And a first year delivery 210-1 from 1949

    Gorgeous pictures & nice shooting!

    Reminds me that I need to get back to the outdoor range once I have some free time.

    And another beautiful day in the Swiss country side





    Unfortunately I didn’t know the range closed at 4 pm due to Covid instead of 5 pm so I had only half an hour instead of an hour and a half

    2003 CZ 75 automatic (shot in semi auto)
    1986 HM P7 M8
    2017 Glock 19 gen 3

    Beautiful!

    Are there ranges in Suisse where you can shoot steel from various positions?

    Very few unfortunately. Most ranges are military style shooting clubs with strict rules / paper targets / fixed distances (25 50 and 300 meters) / ordnance calibers only.

    Private / commercial indoor ranges have free calibers and variable distances, but still paper targets only.

    I know of one outdoor range which had steel targets but I haven’t been there in years, last time it was seriously run down.

    Wow, is there private land shooting?

    Seems like with such a history and so many toys there has to be some private groups?
