    Snobbery, or just plain stupidity, is the guy who owns a cupboard full of expensive rifles/guns because he can, boasts to his mates about what they are and what glass he's got on them, and of course...

    I like functional stuff that does a job well. Ive been guilty of spending stupid amounts of money on stuff also just because I thought it was cool or others would think it was cool but I think I'm...

    I reckon! I watched an NZ hunting video last night where they shot 3 deer on the hill and only took the back legs, backstraps and tenderloins.... That's a helluva lot of meat left on the hill. I...

    If people are complaining about the price increase for hunting ammo, I think their math is off. The price of ammo has increased by $2.50 per shot, what has the price of meat done in the same period...

    Got a gunworks suppressor made in 1997, just as they were becoming a 'thing' here in NZ. 308. Hate to think just how many full noise rounds it's had through it. Good as the day it was machined up....

    2-10 vx5 firedot works great on mine. Just enough maginification without being silly. The only issue I see with the Tikka (mine included) or even other manufacturers is they stick stocks with low...

    You don't need a 7mm and a .308. Your .30/06 would be excellent as your main hunting rifle, but any standard cartridge in the 7mm to .30/06 range is perfectly adequate. If you did need another...

    In practical terms the answer is no. I doubt if you can spin the 125 grain pills fast enough to fall to bits in your 16.5 inch barrel. There is a persistant myth that projectiles become less accurate...
