    Moa Hunter liked post by Flyblown On thread : neck shooting, technically valid, but opinions?
    If the neck shot is on, I'll take it every time. All these were .243 Win, 100gr ProHunter, all shot off a bipod, prone, negligible wind, ranges 90-220m. This is why we spend so much time getting our...

    You need a 1:10" twist and a long barrel to be worthwhile. A 1:10" twist will definitely stabilise them, a 1:12" definitely won't, but they'll still be slow as in a short barrel and that's part of...

    I had a ZKK601 for years. Still in the family. It shot 105gr Speer Round Nose. Then, Sierra ProHunter 100gr. The ProHunter is 1.041" long - remember that number. Where the 1:10" .243 runs...

    .224 calibre rifles are legal for roe in Scotland, but not England, where .243 is the minimum (with a 100gr bullet and 1700 ft-lbs or thereabouts). So all the poms buy .270s and .308s for these...

    Norway liked post by Flyblown On thread : Roe deer hunting
    Another great film thanks Thomas. The comment from the guide in this film that .243 is a good choice for roe, and that .270, .308 etc is too much gun, that's a very interesting comment. For quite...

    Norway liked post by Flyblown On thread : Roe deer hunting
    It's amazing how the poms aren't switched onto deer like people in NZ. Travelling around in July / August I was seeing roe all over the place, often in broad daylight. At the end of my sister's...
