    Got a young baby at home this year so things were restricted to one morning hunt for myself and one evening hunt with the old man. Stags were roaring hard and I mucked up 2 other opportunities before...

    Big bodied 13 from yesterday, snapped Bez. Was another even better stag nearby that had one whole beam snapped off from above the trez so I guess they'd been going at it 221233

    SDP , have you been able to work out what might suit from the thread? The problem with your question is there’s a lot more info needed about yourself, shooting skills, experience, recoil tolerance...

    I think velocity has a bit to do with it, up close if doing warp 9 I have heard they can be a little explody, personally haven't had that issue as the only animals I've shot close were shot in the...

    Get a 20inch suppressed 7saum or something similar with a vx6 on top, kill anything from 10 to 1000m and call it a day. You'll soon get sick of long barreled, loud ass obnoxious bang sticks sticks...

    I was meat hunting over the Easter break and managed to shoot three hinds in quick succession, all from the same spot, ranging from 27m to 254m using the 6.5 Creedmoor. I was using factory ammo,...

    youre going to get a heap of different opinons here sorry mate, but in your situation would do similar to beetroot, buy a tikka t3 in 6.5PRC. I personally would put an element Nexus on it but...

    Had a lot of good results from the 165gr but the results from the 175gr I make are better again. A lot of rifles are really humming with those. In 6mm I make 70grFB/HP, 95gr HP/BT (not available...

    7 rem mag is the way to go. But really look at what ammo/projectiles are available at the moment. You will need to practice a bit to get proficient to 500m.

    Tikka + VX5hd for rifle and scope. Calibre is the hard one IMO, if you are planning to hunt to 500m then 7mm08 would be hard to beat, or 6.5CM/260. 308 will do the job but is more recoil than you...
