    I recently got a call from a guy I know to the west of Wanganui, a hill country farmer with a good sized sheep and beef farm bordering the Wanganui National Park. I met this farmer on one of my...

    Last weekend was one to remember! It all started with an awesome afternoon hunt on the Saturday where we saw plenty of animals including a nice 8 point stag who got the jump on us so we knocked over...

    tikka liked post by ebf On thread : Long Distance Shooting Course? Bay of Plenty
    I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that the chances of you having any lasting benefit from a "course" will be minimal. Long range shooting is about practice, practice, practice. ...

    tikka liked post by GWH On thread : 6.5 Reduced loads
    Im not sure if the reduced loads will be noticably quieter, but if you went to a lighter bullet, maybe a 90gr TNT at mild loads, and run an extra baffle or two the recoil will be much less and the...

    tikka liked post by ebf On thread : Where is my dream scope?
    Woody, what is the most important to you ? If you could get capped turrets, lightweight and illuminated reticle, can you live with 30mm main tube ? Reason I am saying that is then it would be...

    tikka liked post by Ftx325 On thread : The Maths of Recoil
    I think that's to do with the hydraulic shock more than anythy . Not sure on the science though but no doubt someone here will know. From my experience with my 338 lap mag and his 338 edge the...

    I'm sticking with my faithful ol' .308, as it has served me well for 40 years. I do understand that shooters will want to experiment with new calibres, but many seem to rely totally on a mate's...

    tikka liked post by Friwi On thread : .308 vs .300blk
    Beware of the overpenetration of the sub loads and the Nasty ricochet behind. I encourage you to practice on a few goats in a more remote area to see the effects of the round and to familiarise...

    tikka liked post by Flyblown On thread : Subsonic action
    Took the 18” Tikka T3 out today for a subsonics run. In all honesty I prefer shooting the Browning BLR, simply for the silly cowboy factor. But seriously, with a DPT suppressor this rig is deadly...
