Had this lovely old piece arrive in with some other kit. Anyone had/have one of these? Not much online about them and could do with instructions, though not hard to work out how it operates. ...

Not to be discounted. Many moons ago I spent 18 months, on and off, bush camping in Fiordland. Couldn’t stand sleeping in a bed whenever I was home. Just threw a blanket and pillow on the floor and...

Not on the northeast corner. Only sheep and beef. On the second last day (Saturday) when I first heard it I wasn’t sure but I had my suspicions. Obvious as hell it was man made coming from the farm...

I should have added that the blocks are small and are permitted for single hunter only. Anybody else on the block is poaching and a hazard to my health. They get a lot of pressure and more often than...

As a follow on from this post, have now had this rifle passed on to me. I’ve been quietly looking around for a 7x57 that had good bones but left me enough to put some love into. After nearly two...

Probably a long shot but after a standard blued REM 700 barrel chambered in 222, 24” long. Don’t want to get into stupid money to get this rifle back to where it needs to be so hoping to find...
