    Yeah that's what I thought. I figured it's obviously not going to harm it :) I'll be sighting in a 7-08 and a 303 so can use them while I wait for the 223 to cool. Today I used some of the Eliminator...

    At the risk of sounding like a hand-wringing vegan...... Unless it's munching up trees etc and being a nuisance just enjoy seeing it about..... They are pretty cool to see loping about.... But...

    Similar except a 1944 SMLE; with a shortened barrel and 2.5 Weaver; but no trigger job, suppressor or new recoil pad..... I find that the white boot laces that tie the sling gives me an extra...

    I just bought a refurbed Nikon Prostaff 2-7x32 from Natchez in the US for about NZ$180 landed here. Not a scout scope though. They had a beauty Monarch 1.5-4x for US$154 but it sold before I could...

    I actually enjoy using the old SMLE (above) more than the 7-08! Mine easily shoots 3-shots into 3" at 100m using Highland 150's and with the 2.5x scope. So you may be quite surprised with its...

    This'll probably sound soft compared to some of the workouts here. But I'm trying to lose weight and get that bush fitness back again. Each morning I go to the pool and jog 40-lengths (1km). That...

    bigbear liked post by bumblefoot On thread : Identifying Animals is the Bush?
    Quite a few years ago I was hunting fallow in the rut. I'd roared up a buck and it was about 6-10m away on the other side of a clump of manuka; but out of sight. I was 99.9% sure that it was a deer,...

    With all this emphasis on "bush pigs" etc recently; I've often wondered why there hasn't been more uptake of lever actions here? Maybe it's because they are not available in cool or modern calibre?...
