    2.5" 40gm lead 4s ? An upland load. Went threw a few cases. Cant use big loads coz the block is about 100 acres in the middle of chch and dont want anything leaving the property. It did prove you dont need 3.5" BB to shoot geese. Not many geese that decoyed got away!

    55 Wallabies over two nights between 3 of us. One very happy cockie, 3 knackered shooters. Out of ammo!

    One fallow taken too, so backsteaks for breakfast tomorrow!

    Good times!

    No Striker, no. Eat the liver for breakfast and let the back steaks age some.

    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 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction

    Has to be done! Mate who came up to shoot with us for the weekend is heading back south this morning and we couldn't have him leave without enjoying a few back steaks.

    Went down to the river to check siloughettes and a rabbit ran down the track in front of me. Didn't shoot just in case there was a chance of having a shot at birds. On way back it was still there so gave it a shot.
