    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

    Greetings,
    Many years ago I shot a blowfly at 90 metres on the old Roy's Hill Range. My .308 was fitted with a 2.5 power scope so I was oblivious to my feat. I was made aware of it later by the markers who had been watching the blowfly crawling around the centre of the target when the blowfly disappeared and was replaced with a bullet hole,
    GPM.
