New to forum and centre fire rifle
Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2016 8:38 am
Hi All,
By way of introduction I am a retired police officer with 5 years of experience on a Firearms Team during and was trained in revolver, semi-auto pistol, practical and target shotgun. During this time I owned handguns but when the Government stole my collection after the handgun ban I was so incensed I foolishly told them to stuff their FAC.
Now I am retired and looking to fill my time I have been getting back into shooting, starting with clay shooting and 22lr at my local club and next week getting my first centre fire rifle, a Ruger Precision in 308.
I have joined the forum to smooth the steep learning curve by absorbing as much info on the science of mid range shooting as I can, hopefully without arousing too much mirth or raised eyebrows at my beginerish questions.
Will be submitting first set of novice questions shortly.
