    If it really is bush hunting would you expect to get a second shot anyway

    Newbie here..... I remember reading an Aussie hunting mag (Sporting Shooter?) many years ago where they (Nick Harvey I think) did a test firing different calibres through bush. The calibre that did the best was a 358 Winchester; I think they used a Miroku lever action and a 200 grain-ish round nose.... :-)

    @Gibo, how is the search for the ultimate bush basher going ?

    What have you fondled / fired ?

    Got a feeling you will love it Gibo. Mate has two of them (223 & 243) both fitted with cans. Bloody nice rifles. One is synthetic, other wood. Timber is nicer of the two.

    Does it have to be chopped and suppressed to be classed as a bish pig cause my old .303 isnt chopped and suppressed and its a bush gun. And a machete. Probably why I missed the last 2 deer I shot at with it haha

    You forgot to file finger grooves into the ammo @Toby that is so you can throw it at the deer after you miss with the rifle

    Pretty much, I'm going to use it as bits now anyway, swap the front sight and mag to another .303 in the cupboard that is missing those bits. Hopefully it shoots a bit straighter
