    Reg Kidd

    Sadly another passed away, Reg Kidd, a non member of this forum, but a patron of the NZ Handloaders. Reg was 86 years young & still consistently capable of quarter MOA.
    He was a very quietly spoken person, incredibly knowledgeable, a talented machinist/engineer , he came to NZ from Australia as a young man to cull deer for the NZFS.
    He has been a committee member of NZHA since its humble beginnings. Always willing to assist anyone, it’s has been a pleasure knowing him.
    All the best to his family, Rest in Peace Old Boy.

    @flock, I knew him well enough to know how much he will be missed. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends.

    A true gentleman was Reg, always up for a chat and did an awful lot of work at the Handloaders club, he will be missed.

    Reg was very patient and gave anybody the time of day and he was happy to make anything for you. Reg taught me how to reload (which definitely took patience), and I for one, as will others, will miss this chap as a fixture at NZHA. His knowledge would fill a library and he was always happy to share it.
    RIP Reg.
