    Hello

    Hey,
    New to the forum. Recently relocated from Auckland to Christchurch and getting into some big game hunting now it's on the back door. Grew up Waikato on Dairy farm so not new to firearms and spent plenty of time behind .22 and shotguns but new to centrefile rifles although done plenty of shooting with 5.56 being NZDF.
    Looking to get first rifle set up and few more things to fit out the hunting kit. Got couple boys so want to get them out doing it as they get older.
    Cheers all for help and will try not ask too many dumb questions.
    Cheers

    Welcome from an old soldier Shaun
    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 to the forum.
    The only dumb question is the question you don't ask
