    Whatever you choose, be sure to practise with it before going hunting. I learnt this the hard way a few weeks back. I’d been hitting gongs reliably at 380m, then took aim at a fallow 230m across...

    Same game, but a little different. Most notable is that I'm not allowed to go alone and what animal I can shoot is strictly controlled. Would have prefered to do it in NZ, but 33 hours flight makes...

    Just stand pack on its end, put riffle over top, pull riffle into shoulder while pulling down on front part of sling. Riffle very solid with no movement (locked in ready to go). This will give you...

    I find I shoot better off my knees than I do prone without a bipod, go figure. I built a set of safari sticks like flocks but same as him I found traversing them a pain, so I experimented with a...

    I used the same DIY sticks as Flock for rabbit shooting. Very effective. I covered mine in cloth tape. Makes them quieter and nicer to handle in the cold. There are commercial versions available too....

    This is what I use, folds together to make a pole, handy crossing rivers, just help general stability. Made out of garden sticks few small nuts and bolts although the docking ring idea would...
