    Yeah mate i certainly did and had it lined up in my scope too, but not a fan of recovering next morning either. Spring is almost here and there will be plenty more opportunities in the near future

    Trout liked post by grandpamac On thread : .270 is the best caliber ever made.
    Greetings all, Back in the 1970's I bought my first new rifle. It came down to a choice between a Rem 700 in .308 and a .270 in .270. I knew next to nothing about cartridges. The price for the .308...

    Quick check of the DOC site and yes, the area where people used to sight in their rifles is now prohibited for hunting. So don't go there either 260717

    Don't go to these places. Just use the local ranges for sighting in such as the handloaders. You will prob spend just as much in petrol getting out there as for range fees and the local ranges are...

    Assuming the beacon is to be primarily used in the New Zealand search region, an NZ coded beacon is a more streamlined process for RCC (Wellington). They'll receive your distress directly and already...

    Tahr never imagined at the time that one day he would be 76 and start to get all nostalgic and teary eyed and want to pass his precious things on to family before the inevitable.

    Yeah they taste a bit different Springy. I find it a lot less gamey. I got the local butcher to make some sausages, can hardly tell the difference from a beef sausage. 260540

    What I read is that you must continue to generate speed as much as possible to ensure the petals fold. That is not a wound it is devastation.
