It's worse than that, I went and looked im using the last of the speer 180s, haven't started on the Hornady ones yet. No I don't cheat, I consider it a "manually operated single barrelled double" and...

The 06 can give you 100 to 150 fps more in any bullet weight than a 308. If you're serious about 400 yds, I think there's really no advantage to be had with the 06. In either case 165 gr would...

Chase accuracy not speed, that's what the swede is famed for, anything over 2600 fps will be perfectly adequate for hunting out to 3-400 ydswith that bullet. I use 2206h in my m38 sporterised with...

Love the comment for his new bush rifle that's capable of shooting out to 600 metres. It must be very open bush round where he lives.

Fallow seem to have "small man's syndrome" Ive watched a fallow buck and a 12 point red having a scrap. Every time the red broke away the little guy kept after him. Watched them for a good 10 minutes.

Looking at those photos of the woodwork got me thinking, and as I'd used two of my doubles yesterday ( sadly not rifles though) I took a closer look. Seems dovetailing horn was the way it was done....

I've figured out why side by sides, rifle or shotgun are so graceful and pleasing on the eye. It tits, they're side by side and we admire them so it's natural to appreciate things oriented in the...

From memory a survey by deerstalkers a few years ago showed that 80 % of deer were shot at under 100 meters and only 5% at over 300. Stick with the percentages. I've never shot one at over 350 m, had...
