    In the Campbell Live video they showed 3 surviving sheep, which had entry and exit wounds in their heads. One had it just below the eye - seems being shot is the most logical assumption.

    Black Panther canines?
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    Local saleyards had a special sale yesterday, sheep donated and some extremely high prices paid for them, all profits went to the stackhouse's. Think the sale made 22 grand and further 10 grand or so donated from nz women farmers.
    Peter was so at the local hunting comp prize giving on sunday night, which was really good to see him supporting it.

    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

    I agree with what you say in general Tussock. In my experience, adults are slow to step up and help out with Scouts and the like.
    I am not however convinced that this event is down to kids. Unless they have a very generous pocketmoney allowance, I cant see your average teen being able to afford night vision gear etc

    Nah I never do that. I prefer to respond. I. The two years I have been on the forum I have only given 54 likes and I swear on my old mans grave that they have all just been me inadvertently touching the like by mistake.

    This is an article in todays ODT, take it as you will. Sheep killer likely young person doing it for 'thrill' | Otago Daily Times Online News : Otago, South Island, New Zealand & International News There are three points about FMJs made in it this that is utter bollocks and I will guote it.

    "Expanding projectiles could be bought from a sports shop, while full metal jacket solids would be much more difficult to obtain."

    ''There wouldn't be many people who would buy them other than people who belong to gun clubs,'' he said.

    If it was solid ammunition, the culprits were likely to be using a military-style semiautomatic (MSSA) firearm.


    On the complete no firearms knowledge whatsoever scale, that is 100% complete bollocks from a so called expert. Combined with the dribble about reloading I feel it let the otherwise fair opinion piece down.
