    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

    Definitely enjoying the 223 though. Don't think I'll be pushing it past 600 on light game like roos, but if I can get pretty consistent out to that point, I'll be happy.

    Rifle is a Savage American Classic 223, and yep with a nighteater 3-9x42 on top. Pretty good scope for what they cost.
