i love rifles there me fav i will probly own 1 when im ur age but i wont hunt its cruel i would just like target shooting and stuff but nice looking gun i love bolt action
 
I don't hunt yet cause i haven't had a gun. But yes i will, i'm gonna shoot as many pigs and buffalo as i can.

The buffalo we have in aus are asiatic water buffalo.
 
rabbits,foxes and roos, mainly on the parents farm. No pigs there. I have never seen a wild pig in the flesh come to think about it. Can anyone with a gun license shoot buffalo or do you have to have permits? Do you have to have permits to shoot kangaroos in other states? as in NSW at least I am aware kangaroos are protected.
 
I'm not sure about roos hey, i might have to look into it cause i don't mind a roo burger. As far as i know you don't need permits to shoot buff, as long as you are permitted to shoot in the area that you are in there shouldn't be a problem.
 
Nice gun! Although I have never gone hunting I come from a country where bird hunting is popular and out of control- raptors, water birds etc. are shot even though they are protected. That was why I was against hunting, but im perfectly ok with hunting here as it mostly (I think)( and the law is well enforced with quotas etc..) involves feral/exotic animals as long as it is adequately humane! Happy and safe hunting!

Nice rifle and great scope too.

I dont actually own any rifles myself, but i use a sako .270 with a 3-9 leupold scope when i go shooting, which hasnt happened for a few years now :(
 
I tried to get a firearms licence once but they said no because my name is dodgie so i have to stick with ferrets and dogs.When i was a kid my uncle used to work at riffle range and sometimes i would go and have a shot,he had a fieldman .22 i think it had a hole were you put your thumb in.See i know lots.

Thats how I got into bowhunting..:lol:
 
l used to have guns , then one of Vic police's finest had my licence removed . Apparently l was the sort of person that would have people shooting at me and l only wanted guns to shoot back . After convincing the court of this , the moron was kicked out of the cops for threatening with a pistol his partner in a massage parlor . [ they owned it ] Didnt get my licence back though .
 
Nice gun there!! i am in to hunting aswell... This is my "Little Friend" Sako TRG 42 in a .338 Lapua Magnum.. Its my pride & joy,, Its the one i use for taking down big things from a long way of....
