    UK shooter - new to forum, visiting Hamilton NI.

    Hi all, been on UK Stalking Directory for years (same user name) and was recommended to join this forum ahead of me visiting NZ. Youngest son is dentist in Hamilton.
    On North Island from 11th Dec, then heading to South Island (31st) to catch up with friends and 3 weeks in camper van.
    Used to be a mad Sauer fan then went to Norway hunting moose and used a Blaser. Sold the Sauers and now shoot Blaser R8 (6.5 x 55mm, 308 and 300WM). All home loads. Recent convert to 300WM - awesome round, but go to is 6.5 (140grn Sierra) which just works.

    Just had last day pheasant shooting on 3rd and handed gun over to stalking mate to keep my space on the syndicate. Having a few years off from dogs after losing cocker (best dog I ever had) this summer.

    Looking to make contact to see if there's a chance of going out for a day (pigs/goats - or whatever you guys hunt/shoot at this time of year) out in Hamilton area. Any recommendations/contacts?

    Thanks
    steve
