I have a 9 month old weapon of mass destruction ie border Collie x Huntaway that drives my missus mad, so she tells me to "take that friggin dog away for some exercise" hi ho hi ho it's up the bush I go

    Are you ok you seem angry. I don't think anyone was seriously slinging shit at you .. To be able to go for a walk every day is awesome and you re a lucky man the number of deer or amount we all see is directly relative to the time we can allocate to it IMO

    Lots of folks on here can't walk every day They are passionate though and would love to do so I m sure

    I liked that answer, good laugh, and you gotta take the piss here, I shoot rifles like yours just a bit older and I'm happy to hit a 3" disc at 50 metres off hand, the .22s a bit different want them all thru the same hole. The 303 shot more deer in NZ than any other calibre,

I never had any Barnes the only bullet that will kill an animal or Tsx/sst/avt lxrp/xyfuckin'z that is the only bullet to use to kill a red deer at a gazzillion metres(unless you use a Tobinator 6.5x55 necked up to .308) I didn't even have a Latte before I left to go hunting and nor did I have a Mocca fuckin' hype me up 'coz the shop has run out of "V" chinno or any other modern shit, all I had was my trusty .303 that shoots no better than 3" groups on a good day and using Milsurp fmj ammo from 1942 a bit of bush and a deer and I came home with the venison ...what is that all about? Was this just an unlucky Deer? or maybe it didn't know I didn't have a $3 projectile in front of x grains of the only powder that will kill a deer and had to be loaded into Norma Brass or Hornady expensive Brass and was confused ...dunno
    Help me out here Guys
    1. Did the deer die of fright upon seeing a rifle that doesn't shoot a minimum of moa

    2. Did it die because it was confused by the lack of Latte smell and Juicy Fruit gum

    3. Did it die from the noise because there was no Suppressor on the rifle

    4. OR maybe all these fancy projectiles and expensive MOA rifles don't do any better in the bush than a 70 year old rifle shooting 70 year old ammo and a nearly 70 year old Hunter pulling the trigger
    Maybe it died laughing when it saw your rifle

    The 03 shot more deer than any other calibre...no it didn't, maybe up until the choppers started and then the 308 took over and surpassed the 303 by a heap remembering the chopper boys were shooting around 400 a day and with how many choppers doing those kind of tallies?a quick tally in my head comes to.......a shitload more than the cullers did in fact there were more choppers than Cullers. These are very scientific figures I have just come up with so there should be no arguments about it.
    How do I put a photo on here??? help a dottery old fart please
