    Mararoa liked post by chainsaw On thread : A roar trip with a difference

    Mararoa liked post by StrikerNZ On thread : Day walk in huts in otago
    With a ‘high level’ of experience this shouldn’t be an issue. You can read a topo map yes? Scan the topos in the general areas you’re keen on until you find a hut that appears accessible from a...

    Mararoa liked post by SEdan On thread : Gun city quality firearms…. Yea na
    Hey all, Dan here, GC Wellington and Palmy manager here. To clear up any of the speculation, it was a mistake on our team members end. Nothing to do with the quality of the gear - when the rifle was...

    Righto fellas that's enough. If you have an issue with a retailer, your first port of call is to return to the retailer to remedy the issue. Fair call to report the experience on here as a heads up,...

    Mararoa liked post by Ryan_Songhurst On thread : Hunting rainjackets?
    I've had a few of those Swazi Tahrs (still have 3 of them) and they are ok when new but they soak up water die to the soft outer layer and get heavy and take a long time to dry and none of mine have...

    Mararoa liked post by 6.5 CRD On thread : 7mm08 loads and a short barrel
    For what its worth, GRT would suggest your somewhere around 10k psi over saami max pressure to get that velocity with the 19” barrel. McNotty pointed out “no need for superformance” but the...

    Mararoa liked post by 7mmwsm On thread : Northland deer (again)
    Deer breed more rapidly under good conditions than they do under bad conditions. So that part is correct.

    Mararoa liked post by Ryan_Songhurst On thread : Tahr and Chamois mid April
