    Umukarikari Track Advice

    Hi team,

    I'm planning to go out the Kaimanawa next weekend for a overnighter in the Waipakihi hut, via the Umukarikari Track.

    Been to the neighbouring Kaweka and Ruahine couple of times. How does the Kaimanawa compare to those areas?

    At the moment I have a 223 that I can consistently hit a clay target with at 200m, and a 308 at 100m (still getting used to the gun). Which would be the more suitable one to take out? What sort of shooting distance would be typical in this area?

    Any other tips about the area would be genuinely appreciated.

    Thank you.
