I processed a large Fallow doe today. It revealed text book performance. The bullet was a 60 grn Hammer Hunter at 3280fps from a 20" barrel .223, the range was about 200 yards and she was quartering...

My experience of Canada's is nobbing as many as possible in the absolute vitals (either brain or chest) at pretty close range with a suppressed .22LR on farmer's paddocks where the bastards were both...

I also use a suppressed 17hmr which would be effective on a body shot on a goose. Just the price of ammo has become, over the top. Geese are stroppy buggers, so under stand HSs point of view.

I would, by a country mile, far rather support (and do) the small local retailers than big business. Turners in Feilding is a great example of a small town sports shop that has a reasonably wide...

Used a few and a mate of mine used them a lot in his BAR 3006, his words were when you hit them they stayed hit, didn’t go very far if at all. Few more herbs with the 3006 probably about 2700 fps...

I remember them from the late 1970's, can't remember what they were called though. You would not get away with a tip like that these days. GPM. Plastic Point evidently. Still made but with a...

Given that bullet-barrel interactions are only one part of the puzzle of dispersion, and bullet quality is another part - possibly larger - this test may not demonstrate anything as far as "testing...
