    Hi from Wellington

    Hi All,

    I’ve been reading for a week or two on the forum - really good discussions going on.

    I am an ex-SA’fer. Been in Kiwi-land for 8 years now. Have not fired a shot in 10 years, but I am keen to get back into hunting (making biltong) and start with long range competition shooting.

    Only ever hunted with an Enfield .303 so I have not decided on whether the next one will be a Tikka or Howa yet.

    Regards
    Jan

    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

    Will have to look through the old photos. Mostly hunted Warthogs and Impala.
