About LinkBacksOk admittedly I did book this up with forlongs seeing they gave me access to my card again so I can keep saving for other things and scratch the trigger finger while I am at it. Was originally going to get a ruger american in 7mm08 but temptation got the better of me and could not resist the rifle rings and GPS (garmin Etrex 20) package I saw and I deserved something worth a bit more than $600 for the rifle after all of the shit I have been through.
Can't wait to get into them fecking hills after finding somewhere to sight it in rather than heading to the taupo range even though it would be a good road trip and i do have to go there in a few weeks to pick something up that has been waiting down there for me to finish paying off and collect for a while.

Thanks @Toby as you probably guessed it is a remington 700 with detachable mag the scope is a bushnell trophy XLT with DOA600 reticle (didn't have enough for the Loopy VX2 I was going to put on it) and the caliber is .270 as they did not have one in 7mm08 available that was not stainless so I settled for next best in my caliber choice.

Got 9 norma 270 cases in perfect condition (someone must have chucked them at the range, could not find #10 hehe) if you want them. Just flick me your address and I'll put them in the post.

It must be good to be back in action.

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
