Any empirical evidence that exists tends to show that ALL high velocity light calibre rifle bullets deflect a great deal if you hit a bit of shrubbery, a 6.5 is not measurably better than a .223 -...

I flattened a fallow stag last week @ 230m with 53gr TSX Barnes. Never moved. The petals we shedded but the main projectile remained intact. My mate up the coast shot a red stag with 55gr TSX Barnes...

Exactly that I would think the 223 would deflect in bush rather easy. And also in sika country you might end up seeing a deer 3 400 yards away and definitely wouldn't want to try with a 223 . I carry...

Yep. FLSing die reamed with my 6.5ai reamer using a die blank from Troy Newlon USA. Not really a machining issue as the blank was supplied in a machinable metal. Finishing reamer does not quite...

Or the ones that insist on climbing an easy hill using both their feet and their hands, all the while claiming "this is so bloody dangerous, this is so steep, I'm scared, are we there yet". And then...

Probably less scary to a deer than human scent? I can't abide smoking but I don't think it matters any more than letting any other scent drift with the wind. I never cared about my mates back in the...

To someone I can't name, on the occasion of first taking him out..."If you point that rifle at me one more time I'm going to take it off you, shove it up your arse and pull the trigger." Fortunately...

I took a workmate out for a hunt, walked about 1.5k up a valley and then 200m climb up a ridge. Did some glassing, saw nothing so I suggested we carry on further up the ridge. He replied with "Na...
