    Recently I've had some excellent service from Wilson's in Wanganui. Huge range and prices ok. Always up for a yarn.

    Which made up for the absolute crap service I got from a certain shop near Levin. I was made to feel like i was a pain in the ass daring to enquire about
    a product they are the agents for. The answer to every question I had was "see the website"!
    They'll never see a cent of my money. Optics Zone, here I come!

    Yep went in to Stirling Sports Richmod yesterday - didn't speak to James but instead spoke to his dad - even my wife is now convinced that I probably need a hunting rifle AND a .22 to go with it! Awesome

    Told Ya, "convincing the wife" is a free service they offer to those in need of it.

    I don't need it luckilly..........., mine just says "buy what you need"......................

    If you want to have a try at Clays or Pistol shooting let me know, I can introduce you to lots of shooting sports to help empty your wallet faster (at Richmond Sports of course).

    In Nelson (Richmond) just say the word, you'll end up with a progressive reloading press in no time at all

    hah - thanks! Not really interested in reloading though, just want to make tasty things dead. We are in Golden bay but I'm hearing about a few local hunting spots and will head over to the other side of the hill I am sure.

    I've had a good experience with Sportsways Gunshed, Reloaders and GC in Auckland.
    A lot of time its the person you are dealing with which makes the transaction fun...
