Oliver's posts are always gems. My fave part of this site.
I totally forgot to report on two landmarks of shooting in Switzerland : the field shooting and the compulsory shooting
I did both, in both categories, 25 m pistol and 300 m rifle
Both times we were invited in another club for the field shooting, but stayed in our own club for the compulsory shooting.
Pistol : Sig P210-6 in .30 Luger. Ordnance target.
Field is 18 shots, 3 in slow fire (20 secs per shot) and 3 X 5 shots in 50, 40 and 30 seconds
Total of 172/180, honorable mention and a medal
Compulsory is similar but with 20 shots, 5 in slow fire (60 secs per shot) and 3 X 5 shots in 50, 40 and 30 seconds
196/200 and honorable mention
Rifle field
The range
Stgw 57
Field is 18 shots, 6 in slow fire (60 secs per shot) and 2 X 3 shots in 60 secs each serie and 6 shots in 60 secs
