    40,000 that is 3 a day every day for over thirty seven years
    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

    Had a crack at Buffalo back in 1999 with a Sako Finnbear 270 -140gr barnes X it was a very good Buff load. They are a very tough animal to take-down because not every shot present's as head shot and they carry for a long way if they are not hit correctly. The local had a 416 taylor and was more than ample as we were shooting for meat. Worth doing and very challenging.( I see if I can scan a photo or two)

    Cheers for the video

    Regards Rob

    That trailer winch has got some grunt to it
    Used as target practice by fighter pilots during WW2 and still had projectiles in them

    Were you part of that operation? Yeah I agree on the power in that winch, wouldn't want to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
