    Big Bore Shoot

    Am I right in thinking that some good bugga's on here organised a BBS last year around the Waitaki area?

    Yep, we had 4 guys, a 458 win mag, 404 Jeffery and 2 9.3x62's. There is a video on you tube called "big bore shoot" or something similar.

    Will be very interested in coming down for a shoot, once I get a couple more big bores over from the States
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    Ahem, that would be me I think,
    Stug very generously didn't show that I completely missed the first longer target and therefore ran out of ammo by the 25yrd mark
    I assure you I would have had that lion with my Pfeifer Zeliska .600 Nitro Express revolver
    Before he came within 5yards.

    Cool

    Yep, sounds like just the type of shooting to get my Sharps hot, mind you will have to wait till the smoke clears to see if the elephant is down. I could come down with my caravan and stay the weekend if its ok and may have to put wheels on my sharps, but have shooting sticks as well. Would be good if in the Waikato area. Homebrew.357. P S, that's if a 45-70 is allowed, a 420gr lead bullet is not to be sniffed at.!

    @homebrew.357 maybe you should stick to a the Big Bore Shoot down South in Waitaki before thinking about Waikiki where I think the girls always win the Big Bazooka competitions

    Would it be worth seeing how much interest there is for another Big Bore Shoot ?
    Or who would be interested ?
