    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

    Couldn't tell you, its a $200 rifle and its never been cleaned. Can still call kill shots on hares/rabbits/possums out to 50m, so rifling can't be that f**ked.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Another 2 bunnies and a fledgling maggie tonight. I'm loving daylight savings, enough time after work for an evening shoot.

    I got most of my kit on one morning when I went out to deal to a hawk that had taken to breakfasting on our chooks. Got the bastard and the wife got this bastard photo.
