    Hi from the Naki

    Hi everyone I am from Taranaki. 17 years of age have a passion for hunting, have a fascination and love for older rifles. Wish I had more opportunities to go hunting just struggling to find local spots that haven’t been hunted to extinction. Have been recently studying the forum as I am on the lookout for a Ruger m77 skeleton stock therefore I created an account as I thought this would probably be my best bet at finding one. Cheers

    Welcome and enjoy. Which part of Taranaki are you from?
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Ok. I was born in Hawera and used to hunt goats where the Patea dam now is. That was a while ago now though.

    Lots of good hunting not much further south.

    Still heaps of goats around.. I don't know any place that has been hunted to extinction yet.

    Welcome aboard
    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 aboard young fella im in NP, your local Taranaki NZDA branch has teamed up with our North Taranaki branch to set up a new to be certified rifle range as well if thats your thing.
    One of the members offers fallow hunts and he uses a Ruger like you are after.
    Can't see him selling it.
