I am glad you are enjoying it jefftrevor.

Nah, I made a deliberate choice not to use this book to settle old scores. Tempting as it was.

I settled their hash right then, though it was a big drama at the time.

So how is Bill?

Not quite accurate 'Danny' Gorgey above central Te Hoe Hut. River is just a bit difficult downstream.

Good sidle on the true right going downstream.

A fine river 'Danny' a bit gorgey above and below Central but still fine hunting.

Where did you run into that poaching old bugger Charlie Janes, Te Rei. Yes the boys tell me the Ruahine's have had some good snow coverings this winter. Hope to be up there this month depend on snow...

Scouser, Te Rei is alluding to a character and places in my 'First Book' as well as the new book. I suggest you read that first as it will give you a better understanding of the history of the area....

You have an advantage over most of my readers 'Te Rei'. In that you know much of the country in which the book is set and the hunters involved in the game at that time.

Hi jefftrevor, I have. If you look in the Forum Library section you will find a couple of my books. Though this is not exactly a hunting books 'Dustoff For Willie Peters' would suit a hunter. Just...

Hello madjon, That's a pair of high country or rock hunters set of boots if ever I saw a set. Many of the South Islanders used to do up their boots just like that. It was not so common in the north...

Too true, Too true R93. I have started a few shooters on the .222/223 track and they have never looked back. I am pleased to see a steady stream of AR 15s entering the forum. One of the reasons I...

Yes I hear what you say 'doinit' It seems we are doomed to have to listen to that droll, repetitive, mantra every time someone asks for advice on what calibre rifle to buy to hunt deer.

I mentioned this on here a while back. Mate used a Leupold for many year in the NZFS then his son started shooting for Doc and used it for years until one day he fell and bent the tube.

Now we all...

The Old Buggar. Sounds like me. I just got around to ditching my old redfield 4x Power after 44 years as my main battle scope.

I thought me eyes were getting fucked. Wiping the lenses with toilet...

'Kudu' Just a question or two, The entry hole damage seems a little excessive.
1/Did the projectile exit the animal.

2/ Did the projectile hit the ribs on the far side of the animal

3/ Was...

Way ta go 'Kudu'

.222... too much gun now???

Can you imagine trying to patch up that sort of wound in a human if it wasn't immediately fatal.

This was what destroyed the Wild Venison Recovery Industry. After all the work, the treasure we poured into this industry and the lives we lost.

Off these two shipments, one was returned...

If you look at the top left hand corner of the Token Destruction Form there is an example of the worst type of bureaucracy.

I was paid 7 dollars for every deer I shot...

Hi Gadget, With the skill to position yourself 250 metres from deer and the patience to walk away and leave them for another day tells me you wont have any trouble filling the freezer with the .223

Hi there Spudattack, I would suggest the danger of the job, his previous experience allowed Bell to pick the right tools for the job. From what I have read Bell used to shoot his elephants from a...

Hi Cam, Yes its is amazing how little is really known about the heart shot. Probably the worst part of the deal is how many deer are lost from heart shots. When they break it is always directly...

Its always good to hear from you

I think 'Willie Peters' would have wanted to do lot with you than just give you a 'LIKE' Dougie.

I was a good thing I dropped off I got that book finished. I...

Thanks Jason, I am going to burn out at this rate and have to retreat back to my books.

How would Hardie know what I was doing Te Rei. He was suffering MPI ( Mental Paralysis of the Insane) from a long untreated attack of syphilis.

Hi res, Perhaps its time someone put a picture of a deer up here with the bullet strike area for a killing shot marked in red. We then would find that the target area is identical for a Trebble two...

Hi Matt, I havnt had experience with .222 FMJ. But I have had a fair bit with 5.56 FMJ. First in Vietnam, I never carried the Armalite, I carried the M60. But I did closely examine some of the wounds...
