well, I support it!!!!!! any wide cat or boar just doesnt have a place up here....
one thing I did not see in all the other posts relating to the topic was the fact that it is a dry run until such time as the presentation....
no drink driving either...
all animals are killed in as humane way as possible, multiple shots discouraged and seen as bad sportmaship and so on..
the shoot is very heavily controlled and a great time had by all
helo's - well, that could be up for debate, but some great flying to be had here anyway

BLOODY MARVELLOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
ABOUT TIME, I'M FOR IT.................
Northern Chique your enthusiasm does it for me.
I have a mental picture of you as one of those "chicks with guns"
I'll put a gattling gun out the rear door of the Chieftain.
As for the animal lovers, well they are feral after all.
Some Northern Sydney types with no idea of out bush.
All the best

Feral pussy cats, puppy dogs, goats, horses, buffalo, rabbits, cane toads, foxes, camels and even sparrows. ALL of them hurt the environment, threaten the animals that should be out there, and should be terminated.
Good on 'em for organising something.
Wonder if anyone will bag a camel?

oh my friggin gawd...nothing quite as nauseating than some simple, rural rednecks pretending they are doing something worthwhile..
If these "introduced monkeys" are concerned about the environment, too late ....your parents have raped this continent to near unreversed obliteration.

karrank Maaaate!
You omitted one very annoying vermon from your list......winstun
Especially when he inlflicts his appalling grasp of the Mother tongue on us. "Unreversed" - REALLY!!
Winstun, don't you think perhaps you meant to dribble something defined as "that which can not be reversed"
Look it up fool! irreversible
BTW Merry Christmas

I whacked a big moggy out the Nullabour the other day with a .222. very satifying 300 mtr eye shot. Damn thing was as big as a small dog. I would hate to picture how many birds and lizards this thing consumed in a year.
I spend extreemly large amounts of time in very sparsly populated areas, and whack cats and foxes on sight........ you would be suprised how many there are out there.
Winstun.......Piss off you goose!.

Funny you should say that Ozex, it was sitting on top of a wombat warren when I shot it. I would suggest it had just come from down the hole looking to kill a little un........... as they do.

yup, they are a tad warm. only running 50grn slug though. twas a still afternoon and the light was purrrrfect.......... if your a shooter you will know what I mean when I say it was one of those great shots where everything felt right and it happened.
(I did do it for a living once and am fairly practiced
)

WIZ you should try a '250 mate. A head shot like that would reward you with a red halo, (inch high at 100 zero at 300.) Outstanding shot, I dare say as good as you fly ."A steady hand and a keen eye"
(OK OK I'll put it back.. DA mate.sorry about the hate mail
)

It was an outstanding shot, but I recieved the pleasure from the shot happening the way it did, not by the killing of the cat. (sort of like a hole in one at the golf course).
I find the 250 a bit loud meself. If I have to pull a long shot I use the 300winmag, otherwise the triple works a treat.

OK OK I admit that was a little sickening DA Please consider the ref to your flying removed Wiz......But it still sounds like a top shot

Direct Anywhere, just a question mate.... do you, or have you live/d out here?
No?
Then don't judge me, my friends or what I do as a past time, and instead stick to your stamp collection or whatever does it for you.
There is no denying the fact that introduced species such as introduced by some of our earlier inhabitants of this country (and if the truth be known, they are probably more closer related to inhabitants of other countries rather than the melting pot that makes up this country nowadays), have almost denuded this country of many native marsupials and other fauna. I have seen mice denude a wheat farm in a matter of less than a week, feral cats that weigh more than twenty kg, dogs that stalk and attack sheep and lambs, and shot dead a pig that had caught a friend of mine and had him against a tree after we unfortunately disturbed the animal in the middle of the day.
Wiz, if the two-fifty is a bit loud for ya, then the Win 270 might be a tad un-nerving for ya, ya fragile old scrote.....
Top shot though, the last cat I ever "ended" was unlucky enough to be waving his tail/but at me near one of the gates on CSP.... ole 270 + 100 foot shot = cat.... what cat?
Will get off me bum and email ya about that shindig soon Wiz, haven't had two seconds to scratch meself in the last month or so. (I also owe quite a few others emails as well, I must change that).

Now if ya wanna really upset the bunny huggers, Africa is the place! Big guns, and even bigger animals!
Try a .500 Nitro Express Double at a 5 ton charging Elephant. Bloody Spectacular stuff. And if that gets boring, well theres always cats (Big Ones, not moggy's!) and Buffalo, Antelope by there millions! and so on and so on....
Good stuff! Going home and culling Bunnies and Possums with a .22 will never be the same again!
