    Length of flexible 40mm pipe from Payless Plastics resonates well, it is certainly cheaper than the proprietary ones that H & F Hamills etc sell. Advantage being flexible is I can get slightly differing tones out of it

    In the past, a length of PVC tube, powerade bottle with the arse cut out, etc. This year, my custom bullhorn made by Sneeze I won in last years NZHS story comp can't wait to put it to the test!

    Cow horn works for me on Reds,for Sika I plug the Deer caller in.The thin horn gives good resonance.

    this is a pose photo from last year when I had a stag 3m from the barrel then shot it on the run. My roaring horn is a bit of 50mm Black Magic hose from the old Paykels. Use it for a few years now and gone alright with it.
    Keen to cut the bottom out of a Powerade bottle this year and see how it goes

    Nice bit of bush Sako75. If the hose isn't broken and works then why upgrade to a Powerade bottle?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
