    Manawatu Newbie

    Hi all, another newbie to the forum. Spent a few years with 2nd/1st RNZIR. Reading some of the posts their are some fellow Mexicans floating around. Now living in Palmy, been out a few times. Wharite, Coppermine & Kumeti. haven't had much joy as i can only go out while kids are at School, not ideal hunting times but still enjoy being out and about. Currently using .308 Tikka

    Welcome here your still a Grunt albeit from two one,you will get some love as there are a few from there here.Are you now with a real batt?are you bush hunting during those times? during the day favours it in saying that now you could find a good stag putting some winter condition on in the clearings over the next few weeks.here's hoping you get some dawn opportunities soon.

    Real battalion? When was the last time 1 batt held the pine cone?
    Or more importantly the Freyberg?

    Welcome jokikama. ONWARD.
    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
