[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 851068, member: 39764"] Top of my bucket lost is Australia for a couple reasons. One I realize Oz is pretty strict on firearms (or at least used to be) and two, I have a lot of customers there and they all want me to come and visit. Australia intrigues me not just from it's unique topography but it's people and their attitudes toward things in general. I haven't been shooting much but that will change this weekend. I need to get my CVA V2 sighted in. I've never been one to go out just to shoot something. I get them (rifles and pistols with optics sighted in, loads built and leave them alone until I need them so I don't go through much in the way of ammunition. Probably my biggest use of ammunition is my wintertime match pistol league but thats all 22 caliber rim fire stuff. I own a couple very tricked out pistols for the league. It's like bowling but it goes bang. I am glad I bought 15 bricks of Wolf Match Extra, Eley primed 2 years ago in as much as 22's are very hard to get. At the time, it was a lot but I never imagined it would be so hard to get, if at all. Now, a couple guys in our group like to shoot (at paper) every weekend to practice (I guess for hunting) and we have a private range so they go through a pile of center fire rounds and I'm the delegated reloader so they keep my reloading bench pretty busy. Been invited duck hunting on a private island in the middle of the Maumee River this winter. Looking forward to that. I'll have to borrow a shotgun, I don't own one. Finally, I try to be tolerant of everyone. I'm sure there are quite a few posters on here that think I'm an a'hole. I know some of my employees do. I too, am excited about the surging interest in firearms and hunting in general. Not sure if it's Obama fueled or not, but one thing for sure is, just being active on a forum like this isn't enough to protect our right to bear arms and own them, you have to always be pro-active with everyone, everywhere. Forums like this a a great source of knowledge but you have to distill what you read and take things with a grain of salt. Experience is still the best teacher IMO. When I post anything, I always keep this thought in the back of my mind...... Because it's a publicly viewed forum, anyone, anywhere can read what you post, so never post anything that can be construed as making you look like a fool, or worse. This is a fun thread BTW.
