Good thing the tool was never blamed! 

Nah all of this shooting was at a fair range over open tussock.

This ammunition was especially made for Forest Service for animal Control and the brass was head stamped NZFS. They are still around these shells, mostly in collections where they belong.

You are right you shouldn't blame the tool and you have to blame the hunter in the end. But after a few days of mayhem he had lost his confidence in his weapon and once that happens you might as well throw stones at them.
