    photos please, even if you don't get anything, faces can be blocked out. Z ps with them at that age don't be concerned about the odd private land paid hunt to help keep the interest up. I'm sure...

    Never doubt the valve of the odd goat as well for keeping interest up. My boys started with the odd goat first. Z

    Micky Duck liked post by ZQLewis On thread : Rifle for bush hunting over indicating dog
    I was going to add, If going subsonic you get no (very limited) expansion so the larger the hole you bore the better. (ie its an excuse to buy another gun, 35, 375, 44, 45 cal etc) A good...

    I recon you have to go 30,338 or 35 cal. You have a 6.5 which great for target work and medium range hunting. Moving to a 7mm is only a small step up from the 6.5mm so I don't see a big gain for...

    Welcome, Lots of deer have dropped to the 222 and 223 in NZ. Good shot placement and a little thought before pulling the trigger and they will work fine, You may have to pass up the odd shoot but...

    I would second the Subie Outback 3.6 with the CVT not the older slush box (1.8 ton Tow rating) The 2.5 is plenty reliable but you may miss the torque, Tow rating is only 1.5 or 1.6 ton. (New...

    I know with the 7m08 the 139sst generally is a Good option so in a 6.5 the 123 SST would make sense. There is no one wonder bullet and we have different expectations. Some want a bullet to do...
