    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!

    Spent the afternoon with Woody at the Taupo NZDA range, he has a couple of very nice Shotguns, they were having a shoot on the range so had some shots then waited to use the range and sighted my BP 45/70 Springfield Trapdoor, gave Woody a sore shoulder as well.
    Came back to Kinloch and took the .17 HMR out, was late afternoon, score three rabbits and a hare, range of shots meant I only recovered one rabbit so the cat will be happy!
    Boom, cough,cough,cough
