I am always partial to a bit of a lie down and snooze, more so now as an old bugger. My last dog was pretty keen on a snooze the one and only time we walked up and camped on the Ruahine tops/tarns,...

If you were younger I would suggest taking a book. To make you sit down and not worry about the time, and covering more country. But at your age you most probably will need a little lie down once...

.308 is good, .270 is good, the 6.5's are good (depending on bullet) - and 7mm-08 is extra good. It recoils less than the .308 and .270 and it will kill anything in this country. My mate shoots one...

Not sure if I should post my boat or not as it will NEVER be in salt water and will NEVER have a fishing rod in it. It’s absolutely USELESS in rough water. It’s top speed is
