    This is new to me...

    Gidday,

    Stefan here, I’m pretty new to this forum thing but I’ve found it to be loaded with information!

    I’m a full time hunting guide, currently in the highlands of Scotland and soon making my way home to guide down south.

    Throughout my life I’ve never paid to my attention to my shooting as its always just done the job, but the last couple of years I’ve focused on trying to understand this department better.

    I’m currently shooting with a 7mm RM, tikka, hardy stock, Swarovski z5 & my favourite tikka 243 with Zeiss hd5.

    Cheers

    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

    You must have some good stories to go with your time in Scotland. Sounds like a good time ?
