    I haven't been in there for years so can't help sorry.
    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

    Hi guys, Thanks for the imfo, I`m shooting down on Sunday 9th with my 3030 and the Sharps for fun, using mainly the 3030 as the Sharps is 12.1/2 lbs, have made a sling for it, but!!!, yer. Will not be walking to far up the track as last time I did that in the Pureora I had bad leg cramp, I found a quick fix, slap on a packet of frozen sausages and they still tasted good after being on my hairy legs, . So just nice and slowly, to work my legs in and just have a good look around the area . Homebrew.357.

    Sounds great to me, last time I was in here with a mate we tramp into Skips in steel toe caped safety boots, bloody froze my feet off. It was a learning curve , but I shot my first deer with my old .303. Also will have a look around south road area for a spot to camp in during the roar and if I can get the caravan in there. Cheers, defiantly chuck the billy on for anyone how calls in and a blue berry muffin. Hombrew.357.
