As a aside, a guy in Timaru has one, and I shot a few from it. Quite impressive - both on the shoulder and the hole it leaves. (Never shot a animal with it - but big lead and quite high speed, must equal much damage)

Will only cost me $1200 Oz dollars there.

Did the one you fire only have a primer in it? I only ask because last time you were here you were still pretty straight for a bent bugger from the waist up

I must admit, the first shot did kind of make a mark.... I'm not a 170kg recoil rest....
And the guy that handed it to me hand a smile right through the process, and a laugh at the end.

However, if tucked in tight, it's a seriously hard hitting round and easy to shot for both tall lanckyy folk and also vertical challenged. With some serious damage to the recipient.
Big lead and slow repetition this is a great round.

Oh and BP loading is a possibility


For fucks sake, just buy a NZ one.

Can't be assed with the hassle of taking one over.
Might even give it to my brother when I am finished with it. Not a hassle getting it out of Canada but the normal import bullshit for here. I would have no use for one here anyway.
I would rather carry a decent handgun but that is a huge hassle over there. It can be done but I have not got the time to do all that is required to carry one so big rifle it is.
Beside why pay higher NZ prices when I don't have too? More money for some Canadian whiskey
