Awesome report and results. I’ve had a few .22 centre fire rifles and will be taking out my carbon stocked Tikka .223 today, great little rifles. I hope your lightening stick keeps knocking them...

For those who have followed the progress of this rifle it’s been an interesting journey. Back in March after selling the 222 I needed something to replace it with. It was too nice to get dragged...

I went down to Pureora yesterday, raining when I got there, but set up the tent, put on the wet weathers and off to check out a couple of handy gullies the deer seem to like. Some very fresh sign but...

One of the nicest people you could meet. Met her, Phillip and her children many, many times when she came to stay with her cousin in our village. It also helped that my Great Gran was a housekeeper...

She was a special person. A calm, steady, mature hand at the helm for 70 years. Nary a foot wrong. A lady to be admired.

RIP Queen Elizabeth II. During her long reign never really put a foot wrong, no scandals. Feels a little like I have just lost my Grandmother

MH, continued aerial poisoning is not really how the sanctuary model works. They tend to do initial aerial drops to eradicate pest species within a fenced off area, and then go into a "maintenance...

Yup exactly same thing for me in the king country.. Seeing a wood pigeon was a rarity but now we see mobs of up to 25. Unfortunately for me it's a necessary evil. It's not the poison it's the...

Will definately be buying the titanium spotting scope again when I manage to squirrel away some free cash. I previously owned one and happened to also own a couple of Swarovski ATS prior. Silly...

I am not 100% confident that it is achievable but I sure as hell wouldnt say its laughable and right the idea off completely. 10 yrs ago did you think they would have self re setting traps that...

I think a lot of people are pretty selective about the facts they acknowledge. Every knows about the native birds that do get killed and oh boy do the anti-1080 crowd love to talk about that. But...
