    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.

    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.
