Thanks mate

Hmmm, 200m awaits! next time i shall take her out!

Yeah I think you got me on the slow build up. I've been thinking about it more this afternoon.

I think I'll jump to 45 and then step by .2.

It's an addictive sport!

Everybody needs a new target rifle.

All the time. Always.
What is this "too many rifles" you speak of?

I reckon the forum needs to band together and we can buy our own private island.

Set up our 50 cal shooting range ;)

I've only got $1.50 left after buying all that reload gear, but more than happy to chuck it in for a great cause like buying a hunting island...

We'll divide the island up by contribution.

So... You get about a 40m stretch to hunt in :P

Gotta get on kickstarter or one of those fund raising things ;)

Where can we have an island in international waters and set our own licensing laws?

Who wants 50 cal? :D

You want your 40sq metres to be 1cm wide but go right across the island.

Passage fees for each crossing :D
