    Hi, I've had this site recommended to me by numerous folks as the place to come to share knowledge, buy, sell and trade so here i am.
    I'm Christchurch based, picked up shooting about 3 years ago but have been interested shooting and archery for years.
    After getting my FAL my recurve and compound bows haven't been getting much use, but I try get to the local handloaders range when I can with my rifles.
    Mostly a target shooter, I handload for my centre fire rifles.
    I'm keen to do more hunting, I'm not at all experienced at hiking and mountaineering, broke my ankle in December so right now it feels like it will be a few months before I'll be happy to start walking hills.

    Cheers
    Paddy

    Welcome aboard Paddy. There is a bloody good Irish pub with your names.
    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
