    And the body count?
    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

    The cat left a rat in front of the dunny this morning Dundee so it is pitching in to help you.

    Took my daughter to horse riding and the farmer asked my to remove a couple of bunnies ... evidently rabbit holes and horses legs don't mix well ... one was 82 yards which is my longest kill on .22 subsonics.

    Loving the chart on the side guna have to nick that, guessing the drop on the .22 with a home made oil filter silencer has been bit of a drama.

    I probably need to be careful that the stock doesn't sweat under the tape. I'm usually very careful with any moisture.

    Got out last night to a nearby farm and managed to get over 20 possums (lost count in the end) and 1 hare with my 22WMR. My mate picked up a head shot possum by the tail and it spasmed, flicked up and hit him in the leg covering him in blood and brain, laughed so hard I almost pissed myself!
