    Yup; always sighted the old three-oh and 270 in for 3" at a hundred! I think I learnt it from Rex Forrester's "Hunting in NZ" book. I read and re-read that book nightly! It cost me a princely $5 back in about 1979. A lot of money on an apprentice butchers wage of $48 a week gross.... My mum went nuts when she learnt how much it cost.... Not as nuts as she went about a year later when I bought a new Ruger M77 270 for $434 and paid it off weekly....
