    Moa Hunter liked post by 40mm On thread : Does anyone care to guess what this firearm part is ?
    Drat, Oh well it was worth a shot. Has the gun it came from had any gas cuts or other significant damage? Would be pretty cool to fire off a nice big blank round through it....

    I completely get the idea of messing about with something because you can to try and make improvements. But i also tend to agree with the others, i dont think the results achieved will justify the...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Kudu On thread : Vizsla pup - registered vs not
    I would not worry personally about registered dogs, but that's just me. I brought my Vizsla from purebred Vizsla parents and she has been great. I could have brought it with papers for a few...

    I used to think Swaro glass was just a marketing gimmick until I got one. I use a Swaro X5i 3.5-18x56 (BT) on my 243 (Tikka action) and its my main deer rifle (mostly Roe) and it is very good in all...

    Swaro length can be an advantage for scope position. Optics are excellent and about the same as VX5. Also unless you are going to shoot +600m the BT will work ok in most longer range calibres. ...

    Still the Z5. I like its simplicity, the glass is slightly better to my eyes. 4w reticle is excellent. Its 100gr lighter. People get hung up becauss its only a single rev elevation dial (unless you...

    Moa Hunter liked post by jackson21 On thread : Getting ahead of new range rules
    That's your NZDA system, is it currently a NZ Police approved range? Do you think they will stick with same certification criteria? One would hope so but I doubt it. Pistol ranges are the only ones...

    Alright here is an attempt with the photo. Sika hunting is a whole different ballgame compared to the western US hunting I am used to. Talk about THICK bush! We did see 18 deer in 3 days which the...

    Thank you grandpamac. The plan is do butcher/shorten the die, if I can get a cheap one somewhere. Based on your measurement around the base, the measurement from the shoulder down could even be...

    possibly because the .308 did the job well enough,like the 303 did before it....a blr in 358win would just about have to be perfect bush rifle...there is quite a .35 following over on Nathans...

    I've been personally involved in range certification for many years. The NZ firearms range manual is here: https://www.police.govt.nz/about-us/publication/new-zealand-police-firearms-range-manual...
