Nice hunting bud. There is some wild country in the Wairarapa alright. It is far bigger and has more animals than people realise.

Yep when i was looking into the 20 VT a little while ago, i also decided that the 20 Prac made a lot of sense. It is of course nowhere near as 'cool' as the short fat 20 Vartarg, but it...

One option in a .20 cal is the 20 Practical- just run a .223 case through the die and you're good to go. A small margin under .204 power but that round would fill any hole between the Hornet and the...

If you're trying to hit rabbits for example at 600yds, the .223 is not the answer even with heavies in a fast twist. Wind is the enemy. The 6x47L shooting say 90+ grainers would be in the ballpark....

Well assuming the (factory FL) die has pulled the neck diameter down noticeably, the only explanation at this point is an unusually thin neck thickness

Sierra pills tend to go well in most guns and I find they are quite tolerant of a jump the rifling. In my Sakos, they are seated to fit the mags and still shoot sub 0.5 MOA easily.

You always make some well considered comments mate, I do agree with them all. I gave up caring what other people think of me years ago, whats others think of me is none of my business.

Yes exactly right, even with 20x scope at that range these details are not obvious to the untrained eye. Even when viewing the little screen of the camera when zoomed up 100x or even 200x due to...
