    Forum Newbie

    G'day everyone. New to this forum and forums in general...

    Only been hunting 10 years but hunted pretty hard to make up for lost time

    Looking forward to learning from those more experienced than me and hopefully being to help others too.

    Cheers Kimber.

    Mainly use a 7mm-08 (Sako Finnlight) but also 300blk (Tkka T3-X) for tight bush work with the dog.

    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
