    Who was the scots physics teacher that shot it. He had used a few guns beforehand and this was the first shot he fired that connected. Then he sees how far it is to the naked eye and his eyes bugged out, he started explaining the physics of it to me and a few others. Sounds like his school class is going to be doing lessions on ballistics for quite a while.
    Nice bloke dont think he was a forum member.

    If it was the same bloke I spoke with at lunch/dinner, he had a accent (Scottish?) And had never fired a gun before ever. Friend of a forum member, lived in Napier.

    It's living with Rushy at the moment, don't want a gay righthanded 270 infecting quality firearms
    There is a rough plan for it in the new year which I'll fill you in on closer to the time.
    In the mean time Rushy and I will test it soon in the magic valley as he didn't get to shoot it last weekend.

    Good on ya for not revealing they plan Barefoot. I have told a couple to tentatively mark a certain date in their diary as away with Rushy but haven't given them any detail. They will never connect the dots in a million years. Nibblet might but he won't blab. Ha ha ha ha talking in riddles.
    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
