    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Have you tried trailboss with the 577/450?, it's no good for double rifles ( regulation issues ) but is fun in the 458 Win.



    You know how it works with the really big guns. At the shot the elephant falls over and the hunter falls over and who ever gets up first is the winner.

    we had this 0800labour guy working for us who was telling me about how he trained police with the glocks and then went on to tell me about how he was shooting 500gr cast lead at 5600fps out of his 243
    just about fell of the scaffold laughing.
