    Moa Hunter liked post by Grey Kiwi On thread : One up the spout
    Hunting (even on my own) I do the 1/2 open bolt trick. See an animal and it's easy to quietly close the bolt the rest of the way. Never carry that way until I'm in the actual hunting area though....

    That would give me the shits. Either 1/2 closed bolt or Loaded and safety on both ONLY when "action" is imminent. Neither of those if walking behind someone or otherwise not in the front them. ...

    When I lived in the US I had access to a 1000 acre property with a nice cleared ride for an electricity line. I shot my .300WM twice there at 500 yards, once in warm weather (about 26C from memory),...

    It is equipment failure without a doubt A 300 yard shot on a deer shoulder is a chip shot. If it helps I have an unopened bottle of RL 26 that I will trade for a Bentley Turbo R, so long as the...
