    Good shooting. 243 has always been a firm favourate of mine too.
    Was the back of your target covered in clay backblasted by the bullets striking the backstop? I think me and a matee were admiring your BSA this morning at Kaitoke.

    You don't have to. Its one accent Kiwis' seem to like. Especially when it's accompanied with "we were beaten by a better team".
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
