Did a little Swiss rifle shooting yesterday, and shot some piccies too

My first experience with the SR 1897 Cadet, and I was very pleased. I entered this one in the contest.
She shot really smoothly, and recoil was pleasant. I was using 180gr Hornady RN's with 35gr of 3031.

As shown, I took the 1893 carbine out as well, and it was a real hoot...although I had a little too much fun with the Cadet and didn't have much ammo to spare for it.

Overall, it was a really nice afternoon with the range to myself....I guess that's just one of the advantages of the night shift
Anyways, It's vacation time for me. I'll be participating in a combat shoot on the 17th with my 96/11, so I'll try to bring back pictures from that.
I'm off to hopefully sunny FL...as long as I don't attract hurricanes like I did last year.
