Thread: 2013 Waikato Rumours + Tall Tales. Where do they come from ?? How many can we list?

Well thats shit. Sub gauges are ok with lead but I cant see it being good for ducks unless their right on you/ wouldnt cost of steel sub gauge ammo be through the roof?

I have no idea Toby but I suspect so. The reasons lead was banned in the first place is IMO unsubstantiated crap. More ducks apparently die of starvation than anything, I reckon.
The west coast, apart from the odd tidal lagoon, has fuck all dabbling water and I fail to see how lead is a threat anyway due to our rainfall cleaning things up all the time.
If you shoot ponds there should be fuck all shot going in them if your shooting properly anyway. I really hate steel as it limits your shooting ability.

It would be nice if they would sort out a summer parrie season for north auckland.
There are a number of pissed off farmers now because they have been told in the last couple of years they can't get a permit for control because there is now a (singular) weekend in summer to shoot parries! Not much use if you have a few hundred parries and mallards turning up eating the maize feed.

I agree R93 100%

Hmmm Barefoot. I guess the "my land, I will do what I want" approach probably doesn't cut it but that is my view. I have shot parries over my land just for pissing me off while out rabbit shooting.

Yes to that Rushy and they also dont like 308 and 300 Win mags going off at the same time when they follow us deer hunting. It tends to shut them up rather permanently and quickly...
