    Been cleaning this old .280 Ross for the NZDA Heritage Trust, some of you may have seen it on our Facebook page. It's Archie Kitto's old rifle and when I removed the buttplate I found the original...

    $375. He did a bit of polishing on the barrel and action to get rid of some light corrosion as well. His work is always really top notch. 90167

    Lol. ryansonghurst I think Puffin was being slightly tongue in cheek. They're maybe not the most efficient cartridge - but in 90% of hunting situations it's just shot placement and a...

    I have to agree with 7mm Rem Mag. Park up in a location with good country in front of you (making sure you are downwind of the area) and spend a lot of time glassing the sunny spots. A wee snooze...

    Stress in a barrel will cause it to move with heat, but this only occurs if a barrel hasn't been de-stressed after machining. A quick check is to hold the action and tap the barrel with a piece of...

    Yep I'm happy with 2" x 3 shot groups from my lever actions at 100 meters. one has an old euro 2.5x post & rail the other a 1-4 with german #4. Both setup for short range shooting. For deer 12"...

    All my rifles are hunting rifles so I shoot them how I would while hunting either off a pack or bipod, three shots, bang, bang, bang.
