Thread: Lazy footage and some training

I’m sitting around home with our newborn son at the moment whilst counting down the days till we head south to Fiordland. I thought I would throw together some lazy footage I took from some hunts and training earlier in the year chasing Sika. Hopefully it serves as a good curtain raiser to my favourite TV show NZ Hunter tonight.

Cheers,
Dylan.

Nice video the 260 is shooting well. How do you find the 142 LRAB's ? and did you score the Red Stag before he went to the taxidermist?

Love it and best of luck for Fiordland.

Loving the LRAB. They have worked very well on all animals shot so far including very good performance on that big stag at 30m. If they hadn’t been so damn hard to get shooting I would change to them in the rem mag. Didn’t get him scored. He wasn’t massive in length, only around 34-35 inches I think.

Thanks @stagstalker. Great stuff And congratulations on arrival of your son. Happy times ahead.

I am using them in my 7 mmRem tithe 175 gr. Have shot 2 deer with them both in the 200-260 yard bracket and they dropped on the spot. I must be luck as they grouped well in my Tikka Mod 695 which has a T 3 barrel on it. They shot to the same point of impact as my 162 gr ELD X load which is a bonus.
