Claiming Rifles etc On Tax

[bladeracer]

Then it is depreciated as an company asset.All costs related to what you are doing are claimable.If your activities fail to make a positive financial outcome your activity may come under scrutiny. I made about $5000/annum shooting after expenses and have all my firearms paid for through the culling business I was taking part in.

When I was a kid, fox skins easily repaid everything I spent on shooting. Two nice foxes bought a rifle back then.

I heard some good stories at Billabong Roadhouse about fox shooting in the 70s when you were paid $33 for a salted skin.An elderly couple used to camp out for about 3 months and thin them out around that area.Where I shoot in Waroona there are a lot of foxes but I have no idea who would take them.I know you should not have foxes with game meat as the real risk of hydatits worm infection

Um just a question have you spoken to a knowledgable accountant or another pro shooter

[NUTSACK]

No i haven't spoken with either yet. I was just throwing it up in case someone had gone through a similar process lately.
I'm not fussed if i can't get anything back as i would purchase this stuff anyway but the price of automatics is ridiculous so just thought i might as well look into it..
