    Hi everyone. In my mid 50s and finally started to get into shooting. Only at TECT Park so far, but hoping to get somewhere to bowl a few bunnies. As a kid we often had rabbit, pheasant and duck that had been shot by my stepfather - we used to tell my kid brother that the rabbit was a ‘four legged chicken’ so he’d eat it! I’ve got a CZ 455 in 22 and a TCR22 with a thumb hole laminate stock and fluted barrel plus a couple of shotguns that were my father in laws. I have ‘lurked’ around the site for a while picking up tips, but figured that I should take the leap and join. Cheers
