    Moa Hunter liked post by Remmodel7 On thread : Carbon stock repair advice
    Go to fiberglass nz ithink it is and get some carbon thread. A few wraps and epoxy resin not polyester. You will need to get rid of that paint and try to rough it up a bit to get some bite into it

    How did it happen? Normally failures in this location on a wooden stock point to a bedding and recoil lug issue/failure. With the receiver being forced back under recoil causing a split in the...

    not really surprised. the US is an extremely litigious society. Someone always has to pay for something. In these cases especially if the shooter is killed or dead, they will try to portion blame....

    1-2" groups is a good start. Well done. I think the next step for you is to take the guesswork out of shooting technique and visit a local centrefire (NZDA etc) rifle club. When there tell them...

    If I have read this right and this is the first time you have shot a centerfire rifle and if these groups are at 100m or even yards for the philistines then you have done damn well. The others above...

    If your shooting position is uncomfortable, that needs fixing before you start firing or you will never get past sighted in. Once you do this the rest will follow. If you struggle there as in the...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Husky1600 On thread : First shots from my new rifle. Ammo choice?
    First you have to see if your rifle shoots, and if you can shoot. Do that either prone or off a bench cos thats the most stable position. Then once you have your rifle sighted, and ammo sorted, and...

    Just for a bit of context, this is a 5 shot group I shot the other day with factory ammo. Would have been 30-45 seconds at the most. Once I’m comfortable I just shoot, no mucking around for any...
