    Hi everyone

    Hi Everyone,

    My names Greg.
    I didn’t know about this intro part when I first signed up, but have recently seen it come up in some posts, so thought I had rather post it a bit late than never!
    I came here on a recommendation of a friend and also to join in with a bunch of like minded people.
    I’m from Christchurch and have really enjoyed reading the threads that pop up on here on a daily basis.
    I have always loved shooting as originally come from South Africa where my dad use to do a lot of hunting when he was a farmer.
    Im now 30 and just had my 2nd boy pop out the sunroof a few weeks ago, and have a 2yo boy already.
    Can’t wait to be able to take them out shooting when they a bit older.
    I shoot a Brno .308 and a T3x .223 currently, but am keen on getting a 300 or 7mm I’m near future, before my boys eat me out of house and home! I also do my own reloading.
    Long range shooting really appeals to me, even if it’s just at targets. But find it hard down here to find somewhere to do just that. Especially just a place to do some load development on a LR rig. Maybe in the future we will get a 1k range

    Other than that, love wallaby shooting or any pest shooting for that matter and keen to get out on the tops for thar etc
    .
    So cheers for having me here and thanks again to the members I have already bought the odd scope or brass off.
    Greg

    I reckon you have managed to post this twice.
    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
