    Read most of Sven Hassel and the Sharpe series. Can any of you remember the Edge series of westerns? A high body count in each book and the last sentence of each chapter contained a terrible...

    I was a year or two behind him, hunting in the Ruahines. His name was in every hut book and i enjoyed reading his entries

    No I didn't pinch it and I don't have any real expectation that I'll be able to use it. I'll contact the Minox distributor when business's start up again but I don't have much hope.

    I bought a Gossamer Gear Maraposa 4 years ago and I've been surprised how well it's lasted. Around 800 grams and 60 litre capacity. The only downside is that it isn't even the slightest bit...

    I remember that in the '70's we were issued with Sako, Winchester, Norma, Sellier & Bellot and some stuff in a plain white packet. The white packet stuff was hopeless and didn't last long.

    I suspect that all the deer, possums and goats would struggle to have the same impact on the environment as a coal fired power station

    If you want a change it's worth taking a trip down to Kiwi Mouth for a night also. Reasonable hunting up the track behind the hut and trout in the river.

    Yes I got the late Din Collings to re-chamber a mini 14 to .222. The increased magazine capacity made it a great rifle for goat shooting. I had been told that Mini 14's weren't particularly accurate...

    I admire those people who sight their rifles in at 100 metres. I always get a little nervous and the spread of my shots makes me doubt my ability. I prefer to sight in at 25 metres where I get good...
