    Mooseman liked post by Tahr On thread : Walk in a southerly
    It was a miserable night out on the Wairarapa coast last night but my son-in-law was keen for a hunt so off we went. Its a 5 hour return drive and we got home at 12.30am. Going for a hunt is a...

    Mooseman liked post by LMcNab On thread : Tire stands for steel targets.
    Don't know if this is maybe already a thing but thought I'd share as its working really well for me. I have hung my steel gongs inside large tires. Gives an easy way to stand them up and if you place...

    6mm Creedmoor, Mooseman. Got some new gongs and three boxes of high BC bullets to try. And a whole lot of far away varmints to hunt down. I'm going to see if I can do what those Otago bunny bashers...

    Mooseman liked post by Norway On thread : Another two roebucks
    For 140gr bullets I use Norma N15/ MRP, for 123gr bullets I use Norma N19/ URP. The season for roe is year round, it just changes between does (21 Oct - 31 Mar) and bucks (1 April - 20 Oct).
