[QUOTE="Sandy Johnston, post: 976633, member: 82567"] I just signed up and thought best to introduce myself. I am a late starter in the firearms world, getting my first rifle and licence a couple of years ago at the tender age of 57. I started with a Norinco 22 JW15 and got quite good at getting the pests on the farm down to almost nill. I spent a lot of ammo getting tight under-2 inch shots at 50m and have some fun with a 10/22. I shot my first feral hog (sucker) with the 22 bolt and the wifie recons I needed a bigger gun for the mother pig. Thats all I needed to here so got a vanguard 7mm RM and have been having some fun with that. It has a muzzle break and as both my .22s are silenced I went looking for ideas for the vanguard and found this site, I will peruse the information and hopefully glean the knowledge I need to procure same here in NZ. The pests I shoot are mainly brush-tailed possums. I collect the fur and at $110 per kg (25-30 gets me a kg) it pays for the sport. The 6 dogs and many cats we have get a good supplement to their diet when I go out. I have a cat that follows me out and sits meowing under the tree with the possums' smell about. He gets first liver. haha. I am looking forward to a great read of the many entries in the forum. Regards Sandy J North Auckland New Zealand [/QUOTE]
