    What was wrong with your .22 Sean?
    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 wind was really howling when i hear honking and these land 215 metres away. Some stalking was required to get into 22 range. Thankfully the wind helped out as they couldnt hear the shots and 5 had gone down before the last one gapped it. Bunch of breasts in the fridge now.

    Great to see little people getting out instead of in front of the TV.

    A credit to you

    Stunning evening in Central, warm and still. Had a great walk. Spent last weekend polishing the bolt on the JW for hours with 1200 then 2000 wet and dry ,feels pretty good.
    Took it for a test tonight, much slicker and smoother.
