Not quite that far out, just this side of the stump. In hog central, Kilmanny.

If you do venture towards Melbourne, Mialls or Clayton firearms are generally pretty good

John Miall's gun shop on Playne Street used to be my go to gs. Back in day before he bought out the whole block and expanded.

Packenham firearms and alpine in morwell treat me well, not cheap cheap but nobody is these days.
They are also friendly which is not a known trait of Australians.

Any good outfits in Adelaide or area worth a visit for a kiwi sightseeing?

I have a spare super simplex turret .222 rimmed die, 2 rods and shell holder if you want it.

How did the Thar hunt go?

Best regards, Hugh

Easiest way is to come over for a holiday with the wife.
