Its a place where 10% of the hunters get 90% of the deer. Craig could get a deer from an Auckland hedgerow.

Bound to bump into you at some point then. Good to know it's not just the yahoos that frequent the place! Imagine it gets pretty busy for the next 6 weeks.

Sat in that spot on Sunday on a walk out. We thought then it would be a great place to park for a few days!

I’m going to build a hearth to go under mine. Plywood and tiles. Like you say, not lightweight, but you drive there anyway.

6CM also performs more or less equivalent to .243 and has 1:8 as a factory twist by default, and there is good factory ammo available - it just doesn't seem to have widely caught on like 6.5CM

A .243 will smoke the 6mmARC with handloads and a 1:8 twist - i.e. all 4 book max loads listed by ADI are ~3050fps with a 108gr ELDM. It's cool that the new Remingtons come with 1:8, makes .243 great...
