Yes, I was contacted within half an hour with an apology, an explanation of how it happened and correct baffles are heading my way.

I recently ordered in a DPT end cap brake and 2 baffles for it in size 270-7mm, I went to fit them today and resight my rifle in when I noticed that the baffles had 22CAL stamped on the side! Wasn’t...

The PRS bag is much "deader" than a pack - much faster to get a stable position at NPA I reckon. The rifle beds into it rather than sliding around. Very good in rocky country.

Now I know this won’t be a popular statement but back in the day with goats we’d try and figure out the lead animal and tag that first. Rest of mob often wouldn’t be sure what to do/where to go. Gave...

hells bells 400 m moving goat or fallow I would hazard a guess that less than 2% of the hunters on here could do better than 50% - certainly when I was culling and doing big goat jobs the hunters I...

Cheap option-use a caliber with a point blank range that works from 0-250/300 and don't shoot further. Medium cost option-use a scope with bullet drop compensation, I'm assuming cds will be too...

Yes. Otukota was good for heads. Alex Henderson (used to be "Cooch" on the old forum) pulled 3 good ones in I think successive years out of there. Early 1980's.

Have to agree with you Tahr also letting them get to the roar and not taking them when still in velvet (hard underneath then stripped and stained) would help as well as the dna gets past on. Hinds...

In 1976 Colin Cox got a nice head over Otukota area. Best head out of Ruahines for years. A young bloke got a*nice head over Mokai station wayin recent times but it looked*like a bit of farm in...

Thats a neat photo mate, as you said a young 10 pointer. People say there are no good stags/heads in the Ruahines, well if hunters didn't shoot all the 3/4 year old stags and let them mature a bit...
