    Moa Hunter liked post by Puffin On thread : The dinner plate challenge
    So can I clarify please? It is a plate diameter based on one's assessment of the kill-zone of the target species (6" say for deer), and the first cold bore shot only, and from a rifle assumed to...

    What a valuable info filled post. Went through the same thought path, but with the component shortage (using 120grn nbts in 7-08) didn’t have much wriggle room to test. So my 8yr old lad started with...

    That was my go to when I had a '250. Deer seemed to fall over even before you had finished pulling the trigger. And rabbits were just 'disappeared'. " Oh, must have missed it. Its not here???? Ahhh!...

    Moa Hunter liked post by SixtyTen On thread : Baikal single shot rebarrel - Anyone done this?
    I had an opportunity to shoot this properly today. Unfortunately, only at 100m, which is not ideal for a rifle like this, with sights like this and eyes like mine. Saying that, I shot at a 10" gong...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Dama dama On thread : Pump vs Semi auto
    I'm no expert at all. Bit from what I've seen cheap autos suck. So if on a limited budget grab a pump. Semi-autos are in my view nicer to use simply because of the reduced recoil.
