Hi all.

Today was a beautiful and crisp morning, with 5 degrees C (41 F), and I decided to drive to the range some 25 mins from here and enjoy a few shots with the Henry BBS .357 mag. My son (10) came along, as he was eager to try out a 'real' rifle. He took the pics.

I love a crisp fall morning. Your shooting mat looks a lot like a yoga mat.
And you gotta love that 10 ring shot.

Great range photos on a beautiful & crisp morning -- nothing more enjoyable than such an outing.
And the .357 Magnum is a wonderful rifle to shoot!

[I had a simple "ouch" on my computer for some reason, and wasn't able to view your last two images...I'm guessing the targets].
Thanks for posting.

I agree with the comments that the mat looks like a yoga mat and also the shooting is very well done at 100+ yards. Looks like a really nice range.
