I have a Unique Audax which is their very rare bolt action. I don't know how they do it but even my bolt gun has a French quirkiness to it.

I’ve used heaps of the Belmont Black 55gr and 62gr ammo in a battered Sako 85 .223, goats and red deer. I’ll only head or neck shoot the reds with these bullets, unless they’re yearlings. The biggest...

Great grandfather Roger Renall shot a cracking 50+ inch Wapiti in the Stillwater with this in 1925. Need to show the old girl some love. Any idea if a rear sight assembly for a SMLE No 1 Mk111 will...

I found the 22mag a bit of a mixed bag on goats. As Flyblown mentions, yearlings and the like are quite diminutive in size; a 22mag will cream them at 100yd no trouble. But solid billies are a...

Nothing wrong with a lever action at all but I am a purist and believe that there is no place for an optic anywhere on a lever action. In fact any lever action goes from cool to hideous with a scope...
