    Keep your options open on caliber and rifle brand and buy a good second hand rifle. Put the savings into better glass or buy yourself some reloading gear. Plenty of guys bore quickly and sell...

    I supply the local food bank with Venison Mince on a regular basis. It's all above board, I've gone through all the hoops, and know the rules. I have purchased a commercial mince to make the job...

    First post. Loving this 223 thread. Been using a suppressed Browning BLR in 223 for bush hunting over my indicating dog Kai. He's a viszla/gsp cross about 3 years old. Acquired the rifle late...

    My 16" 308 with suppressor is nicely balanced for shooting and carrying. It propels a 168 ELD-M at about 2550 fps and has taken animals out to 440 yards (further than I would normally shoot). The 16"...

    Very nice functional set up. All you will ever need in NZ (not necessarily all you will want though). Shame the 260 seems to have waned in popularity lately.

    These are going 2900 from 20” barrel. Haven’t used any ELD in the saum but shot plenty out of my old rem mag at similar speeds. My experience was they both just lead and copper that kill well. I had...
