    Done thanks Greg. Just a little mumble "going to the South Island for a week sometime next October". All good.

    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

    Things I either learn't or confirmed this weekend.

    1 @BRADS is a legend
    2 Mel, Brads wife, is also a legend
    3 You don't need custom guns or wildcats to shoot long out to silly distances
    4 You have just as much fun on the small close gongs
    5 @Alonzo is a legend, 2k gong and a 315m magpie, transport and 12 hours of conversation.
    6 Shit happens to the best of us
    7 300yd is a long way for a standing shot
    8 1850yds is possible with a 7mm08 @ebf
    9 @BRADS is a legend

    And thanks to @Dorkus for the education on rum and the stock market and generally living up to your forum handle, @Philipo for the entertaining auction, @Gibo for just being a good bugger, @gadgetman for being a courier for me @P38 for running the range and there is plenty of others out there.

    The work and effort put in by Duncan and Mel shouldn't be overlooked or understated, they're a very honest and genuine couple who give a lot more than they get, neither this past weekend or the one a year ago would ever have happened if it wasn't for them. Cheers for a great weekend.

    The one you were kicking over to your gear at the end of the shooting?
