    That is not a man that is a machine
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    That is someone with a massive amount of rabbits and they should be under notice

    I do know some guys that regularly got 300+. But it didn t take that long to shoot out....

    Yeah mate, thought about it but not a good idea. Paperwork needs to filled out for each hunting area and I need a copy of the Hunter's gun license.
    All I need is one young fella to cash in a poisoned animal and I'll be on Campbell Live for killing someone in Pauanui's $4,000 King Charles Spaniel....you get the drift.
    I need reliable guys that won't cut corners. If it's a group of reliable guys and they stockpile in one freezer then that's fine.

    Don't get too freaked on the paperwork guys, it's pretty basic really- 2 documents as follow:

    The Landowner Poison Use one is valid for 30 days after signing, which makes it easy.

    I think this falls into the all to hard category. I'll stick to shootin em, and portioning off the legs to throw into my freezer for cat food.

    You offering to be my Gordon Ramsey ?

    Actually I have stopped shooting hares, ever since I found out they don't have as much off spring vs mr rabbittI thought I would give them a bit of breathing space to bring their numbers up, but yep it was said to me hares much safer to eat...
