    I thoroughly it was pretty dismal to be honest mate, definitely bot like the old taupo shows, there were bugger all firearms and ammo, and not a whole lot of of big savings, personally I don't think ide bother going again if it's at mystery creek again, but hey you might find something your after

    As countryside said, I found it abit disappointing, definitely not what it used to be. All the hype leading up to it, didn't live up to it, in my opinion. some nice heads were entered. But in saying that, each to their own, and you may find yourself a bargain

    The retailers would be pretty "pissed" if the wholesalers had suddenly found reloading components to flog off here when they couldn't fore fill stores requirements for the last couple of years.

    It would have been better had there been reloading gear available but in these times with poor supply from overseas we can't blame the suppliers for that.
    Overall it was worth a visit lots to look at.
