    Had one, flicked it on. The beam is very narrow and the colour tint not much good for a hunting torch. OK for torch nuts, yes they exist, for bragging rights but that is about it really. For what we...

    The two big boy levers that get most use. The 45/70 with 350gr fp. The triple 4 with 265gr fp. I give the edge to the Triple 4 for NZ animals and conditions both hit very hard but the 444 has...

    The steel 9 shot buggers can be a problem. Synthetic 10 shot is the ducks balls. Never had a feeding problem with one of them. May sell for what I paid.

    In recent years the Toz and the JW15 are both excellent value and good bolt-action performers. Going back a bit, the Remington 512 (I still use one), Lithgow, Winchester 69, Springfield, were all...

    Those JW15s shoot way outa proportion to their cost. I bought one, chopped it down, smoothed the action, fitted a can.. for my nephew. It outshot his father's 452. I still remember him laughing away...
