    I hunted it on and off for about 20 years so a few hours in there :), but yes 20m might be being generous. I think it depends a lot on where you go. The regen stuff is pretty nasty, but there are...

    I think it's good advice to focus more on proximity to water (during summer), and keep an eye on wind. Certain sections of Kaimai's have very little terrain (i.e. a plateau), so it can help to focus...

    Roarless20 liked post by earplay On thread : 100m target
    Yes that works well, and is also what I've done. I've started keeping targets during load development for reference, so just liked having a consistent template. It's interesting how that "1/2 moa...

    After spending a bit more time at the range with load development lately, I've been through a few different targets. While they all work, I found that those which offer a more precise aim point seem...

    Trout liked post by earplay On thread : 100m target
    Gave the Tentman target a go at range this afternoon - worked well. Decided to try a 10 shot group at 200m (after watching too many Hornady podcasts), to see how this load actually groups. Around a...

    techno retard liked post by earplay On thread : 100m target
    As my scope has a central black dot and an area of blank space before the cross hair starts, it's a little harder to quarter a small target, so I find a nice small white dot seems to work best (well...

    CalibreWalker liked post by earplay On thread : Second solo hunt - Kaimai attempt
    Having spent a reasonable amount of time in the Kaimais, a somewhat counter-intuitive method when you are getting barked at is to "bark" back (your best impression anyway). In many cases deer will...

    After looking at commercially available options, I stumbled across a battery powered air-pump on Ali (charges via USB C) for under $15. Not much 'building' involved on this project - added a hose...
