    I've suggested a jandal, and if Dazz doesn't stop being nasty I'm going to wander out into the workshop and ask how he is finding the time to be posting on the interwebs.

    By the time supply gets back to normal rampant inflation will keep the prices moving further from reach anyhow. Not just ammunition. Living is about to get real expensive

    I am firmly of the mind that any reason to visit Tekapo is a good reason. Delightful piece of NZ, and becoming a happy hunting ground for our shooting squad. We have shot heavily in north Canterbury...
