    Hey Everyone

    Hey all,

    Awesome site, seems like everyone knows their stuff. I'm living down in Wellington and looking at getting into hunting and shooting so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers guys

    Welcome to the forum Doch. Expect the local Wellington welcoming committee to chime in shortly. If you had of joined a week back there was a hell of a good feed going but you missed it I am afraid

    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

    Thanks for the response guys,

    I'm right in Wellington City, Thorndon to be exact. Not doing any shooting at the moment unfortunately, but I'm interested in all kinds. Keen to give everything a go.

    I'm taking a bit of a gap year before starting Uni so I've got some time to take up another hobby.

    Maybe someone will be keen to do a bit of an exchange, couple of Crays for taking a beginner out into the bush?
