Having been surprised with someone using their own gun for school comps, realised after I said that that I actually won our school's cup using my own .303, carried to school that day on my back on the motorbike.

Had to find that cup first then use a fair bit of Autosol to take the deep tarnish off. Hadn't seen the light of day for years.

now that is something to be proud off - a cup - after years of trying I won the DOC shoot at Wanganui and got my name on the old Forest Service trophy - still proud of that
