When I first purchased my Sako 243 I had a great run, 18 months, everything dropped.
Since I have got the Howa I have a had a shit run. its not the rifle, fits great and actually just as accurate as my Sako.
I have spent some time thinking it over, I actually think hunting with the dog is giving me just one thing to much to think about. I have had some good hunting in spots where the dog not allowed, Fiordland and Leithen. All good though it will come right, just an excuse to spend more time on the hill.
I have a week off and I have a spot I will go for a walk and bowl some Hares, will sharpen the shooting up and will get me and the hound working together better.
hunting is a mind fuck sometimes..confidence is everything for me anyway. I like to know my rifle is shooting well. I now need to reconfirm I can shoot well too. At the moment I have a confidence problem, when with the dog. Just need to get it sorted.
More time hunting…cool!
Cheers
