    Greetings from Arrowtown!

    Hi All

    Recently re-discovered this forum and decided to make it official.

    Keen shooter living in Arrowtown that needs to get out hunting more, generally shoot more often and generally enjoy the simple things in life.

    Always keen to get out with the dog and find new places to hunt. Getting out into tussock country has been a bit of a change lately as I cut my teeth on fiordland bush.

    My main hunting rifle is a Kimber Montana 7mm-08 (go figure!). Making strides to get it scoped up right and putting a suppressor on it.

    Keen to get into into hand loading at some point.

    Yeah, it's a nice place to be. Can use the spotting scope in the back yard and see feral goats in the hills up the Arrow River towards Macetown most evenings.

    Been quiet lately without all the tour buses.

    Welcome to the forum.
    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
