    Over the 22 years I ran the course, I found: -women would invariably pass, even those with no previous firearms experience; the fails were usually young males. Moral of the story? Women listen,...

    No restriction at all. Both the above two posters are wrong. Slings and scopes do not meet the definition of part. If you don't believe me feel free to check with the police:...

    Depends how far you are shooting and target size. For 100+ metre head shot rabbits, I don't think 18x would be outrageous. For shooting possums on a tree branch above your head, 4x should be plenty!

    Find this funny. I always used to use 4x scopes on .22s. I've since switched to 2-7x variable scopes, mostly for the less magnification in the lower end for up close possums etc. So 4x magnification...

    I mean, I have an old Wilhelm 4x32 on my .270 if that helps? Admittedly a few years ago now, but last time I used it, I was able to put a good hole in a hare at 140m... Chuck it on and have a play...

    4 x 32 is probably the most common size .22 scope in NZ.

    30 years ago, 4x32 was better than adequate on a hunting rifle, and 6x - 10x were used on sniper rifles... How our collective eyesight seems to has faded! :cool:
