    How did I miss this thread? Well done Dundee. Is that the first time PT has been scoped?
    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

    I scoped the bugger a few times when he was smaller than me

    I came home and let the 7mm08 cool down a bit before the cobwebs settled and had a 3 shot session on my 4 by 12 plate that @<u><a href="http://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co.nz/member.php?u=901" target="_blank">Neckshot</a></u> gave me.
    The first shot with the camera on auto as I didn't have the useless @<u><a href="http://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co.nz/member.php?u=901" target="_blank">Neckshot</a></u> videoing this time All good mate



    Then I did a double but the first shot went through the hole in the plate



    The results I'm happy with that

    Dundee carry on like that and you will have to change your name to Steelkilla

    Good shooting. Name change to Dead Eye Dundee I think.
