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...

Im not impressed with Garmin either. They seem to think that everyone is technology savvy and its only dimwits that cant work it out. Ive spent 6 months procrastinating over signing in to a new...

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.

Thanks again for the advice team. Four days in the Lewis Tops got me what I was after. This was the oldest stag of many seen, and the only metric I was concerned about. Holding a large group of...

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...

I assume your a new shooter with little experience in the field. If this is correct then please remember that shooting game at long range is not as easy as point and shoot. Once you get out past say...
