    39.5 and 40gn were moa but no real velocity gain. Got out to 2.5 moa around book max of 42 then started shrinking. Not really keen on pressure

    WillB liked post by Puffin On thread : The Hilar Shot
    The hilar (a contraction of highly vascular) as shown in both the books mentioned is preferred as the point of aim only because most shots will not hit there. The reason of course is that the...

    WillB liked post by Bill999 On thread : How to get fast twist barrels in NZ
    Im after a pair of barrels one in 338 cal and one in 30 cal the trick is I want absurdly fast twist rates (1-5 for the 30 and 1-3 for the 338) or basically as fast as possible as I can get my...

    I should have posted this picture last night but the young fella had pinched my iPad and it was on there. This is something I knocked up to show the point of aim broadside for the hilar zone....

    Wood is such wonderful stuff. Almost anyone can work on it, rework it, make substantial changes, fix problems, drill new screw holes, oil and polish it. I presume you can't take a wood rasp to a...

    Yeah mate, can't complain at all. It's never let me down when I do my part. I looked at going .284 (have a spare 7/08 barrel), but gave up on that idea... for now. Current load holds 1000ft lbs...

    From memory, 2.3kg with scope and a round loaded, two in the holder on the side and suppressor. you carry it like a necklace and the barrel end is detachable. Very accurate too, but priced at around...

    WillB liked post by Flyblown On thread : The Hilar Shot
    I recently got asked about the word “hilar” as in hilar zone and where to shoot deer. The guy had tried to find stuff on the interweb and come up a bit short, probably because he looked for about 30...

    Yes to a point. It's 2 layers of bedroll and somewhat compressed with taping down. My version below. Doesn't look very pretty but it works. Originally was duct tape (silver) that started to come...

    WillB liked post by Nick-D On thread : hunting stock design
    If you are running any sort of dialing/bigger glass on a tikka style stock the comb is way to low. This doesn't matter for your average bush gun with a 3xxmm objective on it but is a royal pain if...

    One way of dealing to a multitude of fit would be to make the stock with a small flat profile that various hand swell shapes can be fitted to. (In a similar way that you can swap AR type grips for...
