    see your dilemma. NI bush hunting you ideally want a bottom end of 2-3x (or less) and keep it wound down. lots of guys have missed an opportunity when something jumped out up close and the scope was...

    Don't overscope your rifle. You will regret it as mucks with balance I find. I have one rifle that does everything from bush bashing as well as being capable out to 500m but majority of shooting is...

    I have a VX5 3-15x44 firedot duplex. I have used it on my 24" bbl 7mmRM and my 16"bbl 308 at ranges from 10m to 450m. It is a great versatile scope.

    Leupold vx5 3-15 ×44 in cds zero stop would be pretty much ideal I would think

    Sub-5lbs is too light IMO. I’ve tried super light rifles like this and they just don’t seem to point as well for offhand shooting. Just my preference of course, I’m sure there’s a market for them.

    Looks cool. Will cost a bit. Certainly based on what folk are doing with them already. I reckon my 1500 with orginal floor plate, stug stock and timney trigger is close to perfect.

    Will probably be a while before they hit our shores I'd say. I'd also say good old kiwi retailers will clip the ticket big time on them to the point you will have plenty other options anyhow

    Well done on the Alpine caberslash - I assembled a 223 one by acquiring the stock separately and fitting to a lightweight 1500 barrelled action. Lovely hunting rifle! Both of the rifles in the...
