    That is not an answer. Don't you want to win?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    Calculating the angle on the dangle, the slope on the rope and the pitch on the bitch I reckon 1,786 VC. What is the prize again?

    Saltpetre, sulphur and charcoal, it the quantities and the grinding on the charcoal that's the secret. As a kid we used to make our own fireworks, but chemists got wise to what we were doing and in supplies were hard to obtain, saltpetre is used in the freezing works for hides, that was always the hardest to get!
