About uk_exile
Biography:
I'm not british. Its a username only! I'm a kiwi, born here, lived here 29yrs then due to work moved to UK late 1990s. Returned to NZ 2003. It was while working in UK that I chose my online username for all online stuff and have kept it ever since. It's not because of any connections or loyalty to UK. Have only been back once to UK since 2003 as part of an european holiday. Can't say I hated UK but certainly disliked the lack of freedom & was just there for work. It simply wasn't me or my happy place.
Location:
Havelock/Linkwater or Ashburton Lakes

    There’s two second hand Savage 270 wsms on TM at the moment for around 700 (I.e. half the price of a Tikka) - they will do the trick, and will likely still be worth 6-700 in a couple of years time....

    It can get confusing as you are asking people for their own opinion on products and everyone likes different things. The idea is to get you thinking. If you have your heart set on certain products...

    Another idea: If you're starting out and you've got 2-3k to spend, I'd say just splurge as much as you can on a pair of second-hand top tier binos (Leica, Zeiss, Swarovski). Even if it eats up...
