    On ya.
    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

    A hare my son shot yesterday with his F-TR rig. 499yds first shot



    He nailed one rabbit at 347yds then its mate at 349yds 5 secs later. He was lucky to hit anything as he'd forgotten to bring his come-ups along. Luckily he knew the vel and had a good 300yd zero so the phone app did the rest,
