Cause theyre coming back to Vic!!

Calling Bennyboy - get them ready.... oil up the single banger 10g's :)

Punt gun definition to be greater than 10g (as opposed to the current 'greater than 12g')

Also 3 barrel to be hunt/duck legal.


They also propose removing the (newspaper) advertising requirement for wetland closures :thumbsdown: why tell the hunters hey....

work up those 2+oz. loads fellas

Well bugger me I thought we weren't allowed anything bigger than 12 gauge ! Well,I'd better look for a 10 or 8 gauge and some brass shells then ! :-)

PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA
LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL
DAILY HANSARD
Tuesday, 16 August 2016

PRIMARY INDUSTRIES LEGISLATION AMENDMENT BILL 2016

.............The third change to the Wildlife Act amends the definition of ‘punt gun’. I saw a picture of a punt gun on the old pics archive the other day. It was a very, very large device. The government proposes amending the definition of ‘punt gun’ to provide for the use of 10-gauge calibre firearms or firearms with three barrels for hunting game. It amends legislation only. The government has indicated it would conduct consultation with stakeholders—and I will look to the minister to confirm that—prior to making further changes to the current regulations. It is not clear if the government actually intends to undertake such a regulatory change.

Anybody else note that they'll change the legislation, but regulations will be looked at separately?

Why are all 'things shotgun' Victorian based / centric ?

In N.S.W. we can do all we need (which is very little! Lol ) with a 12 Gauge.

That's probs why .... Bentaz, has more than 20 !

( I'm not that far behind ! )
