Thread: Another new member in Wellington...

Hi all, checking in from Wellington, been reading/lurking for a while but as i just got mentioned me in the 243 loads topic thought i'd better sign in.

Been meaning to get into hunting for a while now but other things have taken priority but figured that now i'm 45 its either now or never. Got around to applying for my FAL in May and it finally came through a few weeks back. Got a couple of mates that do some hunting so hoping to get out a least a few times a year.

My only real shooting has been military 5.56 and 7.62 weapons and just a couple of shots with a 223 and 243 so as far as experience goes, very limited.

Managed to score a PH Safari for a decent price with a VX1 scope so hoping to get out and do some testing this coming weekend and hoping it's a good buy. Once i'm happy with how its shooting i'm intending on getting a DPT suppressor (done a fair bit of reading on brands) as my hearing is bad enough as it is! ;-)

Cheers.
