Howdy fellas.... Lyehopper here, I'm a "Yank" too.... Well actually I'm a Southern boy from Columbus County North Carolina.... now living in Bedford County Virginia. My ansestors killed Yankees in the "war between the states" (the Union was refered to as Yankees and the Southerners were Rebels or Confederates).... normally to refer to a fella from down south as a "Yank" is an insult.... But I understand all Americans are "Yanks" to the Aussies.... So I guess I'm a "Yank" huh? Anyway, I followed Webs over here. We hang out at the same place back home. I've been trading since 1988.... I know alot of good stock pickers... Webs is one of the finest.Milk Man said:I thought you guys get strung up fo saying "Indian" now days. Isnt it supposed to be "native american".

Is there an equivalent US forum to this one? (quality).

Lyehopper said:Hey I've got a question (hope it ain't too personal).... Did the govt. take you fellas guns away?.... I heard that they did. Can't imagine not being allowed to carry around my .45 concealed or throw my 25-06 in the truck during whitetail season.... Anyway nice forum fellas. I'm sure we can learn something from each other.

Milk Man said:Yeah theyre pretty tight on guns over here now. Had some schizophrenic kill 30 odd people with semi automatics and a pump action shotgun. So now we cant have semi autos (well I cant, there might be some exceptions) or pump actions. But were still allowed to have 30-30 winchesters (lever action) so go figure. Its pretty hard to get a gun license (im a farmer so...) and storage is pretty tight too; no gun rack on the back window of the ute (thats aboriginal for pick-up). If you want to shoot kangaroo's id recommend either 222, 223 or 22-250 or similar. Just dont do it at the zoo. Over here weve got wild pigs, camels, deer, kangaroos, foxes, ducks, water buffalo and koalas. (Just kidding, they wont let us shoot koalas.)

Very interesting Snake, does sound "fishy"..... I'm sure Webs and me will get to the bottom of this thing.... get you good fellas your high capacity simi's backSnake Pliskin said:Milkman,
I prefer the 30/06 for pigs and roos. The 222 is a bit to light for big southern grey roos. I used to bowhunt goats and pigs but don't do it anymore.
