    Some great tucker to be had.
    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

    Met someone trying to do something similar in inland Canterbury in April. He was amazed he couldn't find fish in the stream or much to eat in the forest! He had seen a movie called Into the Wild ( I think it is called). Once his rice ran out he left.
