    Hi guys, been a member here for quite a while, but since Jacinda took away my toys have not been getting out much.
    I did post an intro ages ago, but not sure if it ever went live, maybe did something wrong when I posted it, hope this one works...
    Based in Auckland, but have a bach down in the Naki where I can knock over a few goats and bunnies.
    Have restocked the gun safe with a Tikka T3 308, in an MDT chassis. Now need to get a scope for it...
    And just picked up a Chiappa Little Badger 22LR, which I plan to carry in the day pack on tramps in case a bunny shows itself. Also can use it to teach the kids to shoot, such handy and unintimidating little rifle.
    Anyway, looking forward to getting back into some shooting again...
    Shearer and Woody like this.

    thanks for the welcomes! 300calman I live near Riverhead NZDA range, but they only shoot on weekends I think, and the kids and family keep me too busy on weekends for that to be much use to me. I have quite a bit of free time during the week, but not many ranges around here for midweek shooting

    Welcome
    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
