    Moa Hunter liked post by bumblefoot On thread : Wood vs Synthetic Stock - Felt Recoil
    Stock design certainly makes a difference. In the 80's I bought a Midland 308 and it booted like an angry stag. Yet my Ruger M77 270's felt recoil was way lighter. And; the 270 was using .5gr under...

    I have "pet" Hawks on quite a few of the properties I visit. They are so used to me they don't even fly off when I get to about 15m away and throw them a Rabbit or Pukeko for lunch. Awesome birds.

    Moa Hunter liked post by 10-Ring On thread : Night vision vs hunting torch update.
    A good subject Craig that a lot of hunters seem to be interested in. I've been using a Tikka 6.5 CM for the last three years with a variety of Maxtoch torches mounted on the scope in conjunction with...

    Good wake up call for sure but honestly I've never transported my rifle with the bolt in it, call me anal but it's just something that doesn't happen. Have to say though, glad you shared your...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Jhon On thread : Loaded Rifle
    Well its easy to be holier-than-thou but I got caught a couple of years ago and I had a chamber flag in too. I was shooting on my own with my Rossi 357 LA. Worked the action to unload unfired rounds....

    Moa Hunter liked post by Cigar On thread : Wood vs Synthetic Stock - Felt Recoil
    Well I would have said everything else won't be equal, as the wood stocked rifle will be heavier therefore less felt recoil, but I just checked the weights of my Brno's and the fibreglass stocked one...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Cyclops On thread : Loaded Rifle
    Thanks for the reminder. On the target range we have to check the barrel is clear, get in confirmed and insert a chamber flag. It can be an annoying discipline, but ensures no-one leaves the...
