    Given the time window I would be strongly suggesting you look to booking a guide and private land access. Just dropping in on any area first time is going to be hard work as it can take a few visits...

    My problem is i don't get out enough to wear my gear out. See lots of fancy new stuff I would love to buy but hard to justify the cost. Partly because I'm so far north any cold weather gear only...

    Russian 22. liked post by ZQLewis On thread : Fast burning powder in a short 243
    From that table looks like the 80-85gr bullets would be the go for up to red spikers and hinds. I used H414/W760 with 85-87gr bullets from an 18" barrel 243 but that was before I had a crony. ...

    Birds in a shed, sounds like a good job for a 177. Medium power only or you will shoot holes in the tin. Spring/gas spring as you don't have to worry about varying drops. But that Cannon 737 multi...

    Beetroot liked post by ZQLewis On thread : "Shooting" day pack vs "normal" day pack
    I use a Markhor 35ltr for day and light overnighting. It's a great little pack with lots of features, pockets etc so you can get to stuff easily without dumping everything out. Including 2 on the...

    I did a lot of shooting with a Sav 99 in 243. ended up at 18" barrel due to crown damage and a rust pit. Had the same complaints from my mates. Flame thrower, loud and good shock wave. I found H414...

    I have been down to about 8gr of tb but that leaves a lot of empty space which I know the published info say is ok but I just look at it and get uncomfortable with jacketed bullets. Well any bullet...

    I would say don't confuse show ring breeders with trials breeders. I have a hunting lines setter and he is very different from a show dog. Both come from breeders, just with different aims. At least...
