Anyone living in New Zealand?

Hello Gents, 
Curious if there are any single shot  folks on board who live in NZ.
I am wondering about the difficulties of owning and shooting our beloved old rifles there...I know it is possible, but I need more info if I can prevail upon someone to clue me in.

many thanks, 
Bluesman

Mr. Bluesman:

I know they shoot BP Creedmoor matches there. They sent a team to the last World Creedmoor Championship match held a couple years ago in Wisconsin. I had the honor of being a member of their team, choosen to help fill their team roster.

Here is a picture of the Kiwi Team from the World Creedmoor. From left to right, top row:  the team mascot Wink,Laurie Kerr, David Long
front row: Lee Shaver (US), Collin Adams, Ed Forse (US) and the lucky fella on the right was Bob Gariby (US) He won the beautiful 74 Sharps donated by John Schofstall.  The gentleman on the far left is Jim ?, another Kiwi who chose to ride his motorcycle into a fence and was unable to shoot.  
Glenn, I covet your hat.  Bob

Here is Laurie Kerr shooting his 40-85 Ballard on a rolling block action.  He won the mid-range match.
