I've been lucky so far but I finally decided to get a PLB for when I do solo tramping. Wouldn't you know it, first trip out and I arsed over and fucked my back. Luckily it wasn't too severe and I...

Lots of ex FS huts used to have racks (Caples etc) but when DOC took over and encouraged trampers to use them the gun racks got taken out - the start of Wokeness??

Last year was the first time I have been to a hut with a gun rack, but no way would my rifle fit in the slots. SAV 99 with stock pack and 2.5x10x45 scope. Other wise when in huts with trampers i...

Always break open and empty my Baikal when approaching a hut. And once I'm in there I break it down completely so there's absolutely no confusion. The huts I use regularly are mostly other hunters....

This is why Kiwis are God's children - you just could not leave anything of value, let alone a firearm, hanging outside a hut or unattended in a hut while you went off somewhere else. It simply...

Such a pitty Howa buggered the mini with a single stack magazine and badly designed magazine catch, those 2 things kind of cancel out its smooth action and great trigger. I own both, 223 Ruger and...

I'll add my HIGH rating for the Ruger American Ranch in 5.56 (.223 Rem). I have put just on a 1000rds through mine, and even with cheap as steel case stuff, it is very accurate. My bolt has...

Chamber flags do have a use and a very good one. On ranges, its a very quick and clear indication that the chamber is unloaded and safe without having to inspect the chamber and they work in all...

Good, sensible safety practices are about one thing and one thing only. The “KISS” principle. The more layers you have, the more complex and onerous it becomes. Mistakes will happen. We have...

Well, he's won daftest comment of the day. One of the reasons I specifically like break actions is the safety aspect. If the action is broken, you can easily see if there is a round in the chamber...

I get too hot with Bino harnesses so changed to a camera strap and a Swazi ‘bino beret’. The camera strap is long enough that it can go over my shoulder when not in use that much or around my neck if...
