    Need a bit of a hand!

    Gday,

    I've recently been putting together a new 7RM which I'm pretty excited about! Only issue is I have nowhere to sight it in.. I'm currently based in Cambridge / Hamilton. I have a 4 day trip planned on the 2nd of Jan, hoping to be able to use the rifle as it is far lighter, will be ideal for big walkin trips.

    I'm not very experienced when it comes to sighting in and setting up scope correctly. If anyone has a farm/range in the general area and would be keen to give me a hand? It'd make my Christmas!

    Cheers,
    Vin

    If Happy doesn't work out for you @hotsoup I am looking at heading over to Rotorua range this week with obligatory stop in the Outdoorsman if you are happy to share the ride- either that or might invite myself to Happy's place but have to go get some more ammo!
    His place is addictive!

    Hey Happy can I come play?
