G'day from - SA


Recommended Posts

G'day from Wynn Vale, Adelaide.

Just found this forum, and it looks like a worthwhile place to be on.

Inspired I must say by a less than positive experience I just had with a brand spanking new Gamo air rifle. That's the firearms forum though, I won't go off topic here.

I've been shooting and hunting for about 31 years if I recall back to my first airgun and the local outings with it.

These days I'd call myself a varmint shooter and a fox specialist, although by no means an expert. Whistling during daylight is my most pleasurable hunting pastime, but shooting foxes under a spotlight is the main thing I do when seriously cull numbers for station owners.

I do my own reloading on .222 and .308 with great success. I tinker with DIY gunsmithing (in a safe manner) and budget rifle improvements. My philosophy is that anybody can 'cheque book engineer' their firearms, but few can tune their own, but it so rewarding when you can improve your shooting and firearms yourself.

I recently bought a compound bow too, I loved archery at high school and will tinker with the bow whenever I get the chance.

Cheers,

Mr Sneezy

HI all!

My name is Paulo, I came from Brazil about 1.5 years ago, now living in the Clare Valley.

I used to hunt in Brazil from wild pigs to birds, now I just got my firearm license and it's time to discover the hunting around here. I had an opportunity to shoot some rabbits with a mate a couple of months ago, it was very funny!

Cheers!

Hi all

Looking to get back into hunting. Grew up in the country, north of Adelaide and hunting was part of the lifestyle.

Now living in Adelaide, it is a bit harder to get out but looking to 'get some'.

G'day all,

I just recently bit the bullet and got my firearms licence - yeeha!!!

I'm a city slicker by location only - a country bloke by heart. I prefer stalking rather than spotlighting as Australia is a great country and I intend to see as much of it as I can!

Currently own a Winchester 69a .22 cal in immaculate condition, a Gamo .177 Air rifle, and am looking for that perfect center-fire to last me a lifetime!

I hunt rabbits and foxes mostly BUT am looking for access to some properties with some larger game such as deer, goat and of course pig - once I get a larger cal. gun though.

Cheers for reading,

SCULPTY.
