    I can't remember but it's Brad's place down boondocks. Turn left at the black stump and keep on going.

    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

    really looking forward to the weekend. For a 1st timer to the event is there more info available on the set up, ranges & options of targets. Trying to decide on 1 or 2 boomsticks to bring ? Keen to get more trigger time on 284 bushpig out to 500 - 700 yds & the Rem mag for 700 - 1000+.

    My advise would be to bring both mate. I will do another range picture on the Friday to pass around as needed which shows what gongs are where and the distance. I will try and get both actual distance and ballistic distance as that mucked a few up last year.

    Bring both. Plenty of guys to spot your shots and fine tune your velocity from your drop.

    Heaps of fun to be had. Some of the smack talk is next level....

    I didn't even take a gun last time and still had a good time.

    Very disappointed that I won't get to listen to @veitnamcam solving all of the worlds problems in front of the bonfire though.

    Amazing how much sense he made though.

    @BRADS in short words and sentences can you answer the following:

    Could I come for one day, and if so what day?
    Is there shorter range stuff like out to 500 yards (waiting for a cataract op-so a bit hazy at the mo)?
    Would my clicky scoped 6.5x55 be ok - and could I re-sight it in if its not on?
    How many shots would I need?
    Will I be mocked and laughed at if I arrived with a zimmer frame and nurse, and miss a lot?
