My experience bush hunting has always been that I've identified the deer by naked eye before bringing up the rifle to shoot it. I cant think of a deer I have shot in the bush where I had to evaluate...

Not to get too snooty about it, i was walking along the track one day and saw some tourists up ahead get out of their tent naked and go for a quick skinny dip - you can bet your arse I got a better...

Wonder what the actual wording of the law is. I sometimes bore sight my rifle using lit windows a few km away. But I agree re bringing binoculars, no brainer really, protects from some snap...

Had a look back to when I joined, doesn't look like I intro'd myself. Had my 1st air rifle at 10, brought up on a farm, shot at nearly everything in sight. Learned about gun safety then. 1st .303...

No not yet, I have updates on this but thought it might be a bit bad taste posting them now. This is a toy and at the end of the day it has to go so be it. Let's keep the politics and scare...

Hi Carlsen, Well done, that is a good looking rifle for 500. Looking forward to see your score. Your challenge is flattering. But, no, I do not have 500 bucks to throw around for this...

Ultimitsu, I bought this for $500. And many others like it that would shoot nearly as well, old BSA's and old Brno's. It will shoot anything I load for it into an inch. I cannot get it to shoot...
