Nice 11 point public land stag who gave me the slip last weekend. He wasn't so lucky this time. He has weak tops and a bez stub on one side. Not sure if more age would have made him any better?...

I don’t carry much these days. Used to carry whole deer out when younger but that’s a good way to hurt oneself these day's, especially if it’s thick. Once was a pig hunter so carrying a boar out to...

DPT for me. Have 3 of them, my mk1 on the 308 been going for years no prob, mk2 with muzzle break on the 284 is great, and just this week one on my 260, chopped threaded and fitted in 24hrs.

I’ve been playing with the modular setup of my DPTs lately and it’s a great reminder of how simple and good they are. Want it short then leave it short. Want it quieter? Add a few baffles and it sure...

I can't speak to any of the others because I only use DPT. They work well and are a reasonable price. I have had no reason to look at other brands. The only comparison I have had is a...

17gn 17cal projectile has a lot smaller surface area for the wind to act on too. Funny that the myth about excessive drift persists.

I purchased a CZ varmint some years back which was a big mistake as I didn’t need a varmint barreled rifle for hunting. Sold that and purchased a CZ452 American from Shooters World in Gore as they...

Ive got a Browning T-Bolt. Very accurate with Hornady ammo. Love shooting bunnies with it and the odd wallaby. Surprised by how it knocks wallaby over. Definitely needs the little suppressor its got...

The last time I talked with the doc manager they were only paying for hinds over 40kg, I tried to point out that it should be paid out on any hind not just the weight the factory wants

Shoot to waste and own it. My last proper trip in there last roar we got our Norwegian friend a NZ Red Stag and then smacked every hind we saw after that. Rec hunters will never do enough but we can...

There is a deer farm just down the road. My mate got a good video of it and we didn't think we could see an ear tag but with that rack you'd assume so. He went up someones drive about a km up the...
