Limited time frame shooting due to the type of foliage means a number of shots in quick sucession leads to a better chance of hitting the target.
I only bought the semi auto once I bought and started living on the property because I soon realised there was no set shot shooting where bolt / lever actions are more suited, my sucess rate jumped dramatically once I started using the semi.
The interesting thing geffa was this, if I had made $1 income from the property I could have kept the gun (the police inspectors words) but the fact that I was trying to restore the place mean't nothing. It's fragile coastal dune country that was badly degraded due to overstocking and vermin numbers, I got rid of the stock but my only option now for the vermin is poisoning and I am afraid that does not appeal to my senses having seen animals die from it.
Its a flawed inflexable law that was politicly motivated, the figures proove that it has achieved absolutely nothing just disenfranchised legitimate gun users.
