Thread: Why are all introduction posts the same?

Hi everyone, I decided to make an account and introduce myself after a fair few months of trawling through the numerous forum threads, plenty of useful information and have learnt a bunch already.

I am a pretty new hunter, having dabbled in it periodically throughout my life shooting rabbits, possums and goats but not until recently had I been out chasing deer with a good friend of mine and it was awesome. So I am keen to learn as much as I can and hopefully provide a few storys (and learn a few lessons) along the way!

Was living in the big smoke of Palmerston North and had been on a handful of fallow/sambar hunts but have now moved home back to Taranaki, really keen to get out as often as I can and give it a good go, also recently joined NZDA here in Taranaki.

Recently got my FAL so am in the market for both a .22 and a .308 so hopefully be able to utilize the forum to get my hands on both.

Thanks for the wealth of information you all put into the forum, it's a really great resource, Safe and happy hunting!!!

Welcome aboard Bondu

Great introduction not the same as others at all. Good idea to get a .22 as well cheap practice. All the best on your hunting journey.

But the advice on the 22 is very sound.

Welcome. Just remember at least half you read on the internet is bullshit, here is no different haha!

I recon they are the same because your probably joining for the same reason as everyone else and your introducing yourself

Cheers lads. Just taking the piss about the title, was trying to make it different from the usual lol. Looking forward to getting a .22, any suggestions on one? Would probably be looking to spend around $500-$1500 all up

Maybe H&K model 270(that’s the model not a calibre), would fit the ticket?
I got two and at my delicate age maybe it’s time to let one go?

I you just want a general .22 for busting bunnies and popping possums then a Ruger 10/22 will do the business and fit well within your budget.

Next thing you know rushy will be telling you waikato is beer as well

@Rushy, how's the cheek on this one ^

We who are in the know have the last laugh Gibo. I’ll drop a doggy doodoo in his letterbox. Ha ha ha ha.

Maybe I’ll have to take that comment with a grain of salt if he loves Waikato, everyone knows Heineken is the top dog of beers
