    I got a 12 4yrs ago that I shot by making a rushed/poor judgement call, because he made me, that went 271. It had to be measured as a 10. I was always bummed that I shot him but he must be reasonable if that only goes 265, its a nicer looking head than mine but maybe not as long or wide.

    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

    The Nosler is going sweet, I've adorned it with plenty of scratches and a nice big bald patch from use ( hardly visible in the pic).

    Yeah I think its been common for people not to realise, I certainly didn't until I got my fishing booklet.

    Not butt loads of animals up there anyway, but probably good to have a wee breeding area where they can roam onto the public land I spose.

    Was up the Typo (get it) last week and heard nothing, bloody hell its gotten rough up there since spring.

    In my experience, having hunted it for 30 odd years I reckon it holds as many animals as any other major catchment in the area.
