    stug I fired 76 shots for 63 wallaby and 3 rabbits (10 misses). Not so good on the running shots. Didn't miss a sitting one. I take 40 rounds per evening.

    I did end up going for a quick cheeky Catlins hunt and look at this wall hanger! Wow big trophy boy! Sarcasm aside, I did take the head home, going to hang him on the wall and mark him as my first...

    Trout liked post by Tahr On thread : howa 223 at ranges
    Don’t use the .223 on deer if you are flustered or rushed. It’s a caliber for cool heads and steady hands. But on the other hand it can teach you to shoot well and make correct bullet placement...

    ask your woman......... sometimes an extra inch would be very desirable...all depends on how many inches you have to begin with I guess.

    500 to 600 yards is not a hard shot with right equipment and right conditions. I still get as close as I practically can . Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    3 of us got 150 wallaby and a couple of elusive quadrupeds (4 afternoons/evenings). All with .223. I shot them out to 375 yds, all with 80 Targex. The others used 55 Hornady (Sako A1 and Howa). On...

    My recent purchased Howa heavy barrel has impressed me with it’s accuracy with factory ammo . It either hates a load or loves it with very few in between. I settled on Fiocchi 60 gn Factory ammo...
