I really pushed the envelope with the 80 Targex and .223 this morning (with a grandson). 330 yards back of the shoulder hit (lung, where I mostly go for with the .223). There was a bit of...

My bush pig is an Interarms Mark X with a .308. barrel cut to 16”. I think. It has a Gunworks suppressor. My initial load was a 125 accubond with H335 powder. I used H335 because I had it left over...

Just out from 5 nights in the Bush. Few stags going still but not well enough to get onto them that way. All animals were shot on the stalk, seemed to be quite a few decent animals around this...

About a month ago a mate of mine invited me to hunt the kaimanawas for sika with him and a couple of mate. I've only recently moved up from Canterbury and have been hoping to go for my first elusive...

MacPac Plateau, cant fault it, bombproof. Weighs around 4kg so not the lightest 4 season tent. Scored it off trademe for $200. Absolute bargain. 196149

I have been wanting one of these for a while now. Many of you will know I'm all about a short handy rifle that can still stretch the legs a bit for hunting. The whole idea of the SAUM for me over my...
