    Hi everyone,scottish hunter relocated to NZ

    Hi everyone,i live in napier hawkes bay, myself and my family moved here from Aberdeenshire scotland around 18 months ago,i have hunted all my life getting out at an early age with my neighbour culling deer and snaring rabbits for the forestry commission and I'm still as keen now!i love hunting deer and vermin, target shooting long range, gong shooting
    rimfire plinking,all things rifle! mostly used my.270 back home on the roe and red deer but like my .300 win mag and 7 saum ,i have started hunting the kawekas and rauhines its great having the hunting access on our door step here!

    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
