G'day.

Noticed there are a few Aussies around here, even one or two near me.

Been reading posts on the hide for several months now trying to read and learn as much as I can. I'm just getting into the long range game, so thought I'd join up. The online lessons on offer, seem quite good and I'm planning on doing a few of the long range shooting courses on offer locally.

Just got my first rifle, a Tikka T3.223 1:8" with a US Optics ST10 on top. Plan on putting it in an XLR chassis as soon as I can get one. Figured I'd start with an easy to find, cheap to shoot calibre before I step up to the longer ranges/bigger calibres.
 
Welcome aboard from B'ham, Alabama, US!

The Tikka rifles are solid shooters with a great reputation of being capable of "Less than MOA out of the box". Good luck, and good shooting to ya there mate!
