    G'day all

    Just wanted to introduce myself as its over due i think, names Sean. Done a lot of goat hunting in the wellington region, along with the odd red deer and pig. Current shooting rig is a Sako Bavarian in .270 but i also have a few others i bring out for the right situation. I started reloading my own ammo pretty early on in my hunting career, even though i don't really do any target shooting i do enjoy a day at the range.
    Cheers

    Welcome.
    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

    Welcome!
    I think the secret code #27gang will probably call them.

    Hello all! A good friend recommended I check these forums out. He's a very keen long distance shooter/hunter and owed to him, I'm getting more involved in it. I'm from the US, but living in Cambridge now. I enjoy practice shooting and stocking the freezer with deer, ducks, goat, and turkey too. The missus likes all the above and is a keen possum shooter too! Ah, guess I should state currently shooting .308...but have shot many .270 rounds.
