Only fair I say hello

#1 Post by Hrun »

Long time lurker, new member.

Hi folks,

I started off shooting small bore, progressed to full bore and ended up with what the liberals would describe as a cache of firearms.

I have recently started reloading for my .357 Marlin which lead me here.

Things that erk me.. much as I am turning into a grumpy old man, but especially when firearms are described as weapons. If you mean no harm, it is no more a weapon than a brick.

Cheers, hope to contribute once I know more than others..

I started shooting clays first (just over 5 years ago, obtained my FAC about 12 months later), then small bore (.22LR), moved to full bore (.357 underlever) at the same club but only at 25m (a very good training club, I learned a lot). Therefore needed another club to shoot longer range; then it can get serious and expensive!

What have to purchased for your cache? I (not sure about anyone else), like to see pictures of others firearms. We all like different types, even if its not my personal choice (black powder and wood stocks [wait for the response from Dromia!] are not my thing), I like to see what others have. You can never have enough firearms :)
