Im bringing this thread back as there has been some ppl talking about the laws again of late

no problems boys and girls i don't think we will ever see the day that we get them back (although id love to be wrong) these days is more about not letting them go any further and like i said the best way to do that is educate people and join clubs

Thanks Harve if i ever need any research ill grab the book all im worried about these days is letting people know what the general outline off the law is like it said at the start im sick of 12 - 15 year old kids getting on forums like this and saying "Australia sucks they banned BB guns and...

in my opinion Tikka - they tend to be a little bit better factory finished. smother action and im yet to see one that isn't accurate right out of the box. they do have the detachable mag tho 700 sps - well built rifles you can buy a billion accessory's and they can be tuned up buy any gun...

well done i like the offset idea

30-30 i own both and i believe the 44 is slightly better suited to home defense and hogs but the 30-30 is a much better "All Round" solution

should be a matter of dropping the shoulder and opening up the throat. seems a pain in the backside tho and id watch the thickness of the brass at the throat

Harve Curry i believe so however if you read the wording now im not educated in legal terms and workings of the court how ever my understanding of that would be that currently the law forbids the use of arms in self defense for most ordinary people i know self defense in not a...

Link what??? Thanks to all who have read this and those that have added to it. The biggest cause of gun laws like this i believe is lack of education of firearms and the public perception Example I am a member of a 4X4 web site and on that site someone started a "put a face to the name"...

"If it's good to start with" Nope its a lot of rifle to start with "what's the cheapest way to get started with it?" there isn't a cheap way with .338 lap mag like they said check out 6mmbr or just go get yourself a 308 they are good out to 1 km don't kick to hard, cheaper and a good all...

Im with chriso and Mike the Wolf. 5.56 can be accurate out to 900 yards with a 1 in 6.5 to 9 twist and 90gn projectiles. however for reliable accuracy and humane kills on anything larger than a varmint at 500 yards go the 7.62x51

joe_kidd i think NIOA is the Australian importer you can contact them directly or call QLD Gun exchange they deal with NIOA daily QLD Exchange (or any gun shop for that matter)can send your rifle to any gun shop in Australia for you to pick up. be warned ask around at gun shops before getting...

yep with the right twist right weight right charge they can be accurate out to 900 we built a rifle for my pop to shoot target he out shoots some of the 308 boys these days how ever i wouldn't recommend hunting with these at long range

yea it might be fun as hell to shoot but there is NO WAY i would ever get photographed ANYWHERE near it its like mopeds and fat chicks .... great fun until your mates catch you

WOW im glad i started this thread thanks to the other Aussies for fielding the questions to i started this thread because there was alot of 12-16 year olds saying things like "australia sucks you cant even own a BB gun here" and so on not to mention the misinformation given buy the ANTI'S
