    Hey all,
    24 year old guy keen on getting into hunting, recently moved to the mighty Waikato from Auckland.
    Been on a handful of hunts with mates, and the standard possum and rabbit shooting - so looking forward to learning more from everyone on here.

    Only have a .22 at this stage but hoping to expand that over the next while - saving up for a centre fire hunting rifle to get started hunting with some new mates at this stage.

    Cheers!

    Sorry, should have said - I made this account 3 years ago but then ended up never pursuing going hunting. Hopefully being more central NI I'll be able to find more time to get into it! Cheers Max and Scotty.

    Welcome young fella. Enjoy
    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
