Soooo.... does that mean that your open to selling it or are a big tease!! :-D

Gold!!! :-D

Great trip ---- good stuff

The 3006 loaded with some sleek wind cheating projectiles will reach out a long way! If long range shooting is the plan maybe a scope to take advantage of the distance that is available?

What is your NI gun? Bet that would work. Add a range finder and drop chart. If they are still too far away, walk closer. A bit of old fashioned stalking used to work and still does. Honestly...

270 will be just fine. No point splashing out on another cannon. The 270 would possibly be a bit punishing for a pest control situation though.

I saw goats pretty much on the road in the gorge today. So i'm thinking, line it up in the ute, and hope said beast lands in the tray. You would not even have to step a foot in front of you. ...

Headed towards Skippers the other weekend. Could not get there, a bit too tricky for a 2 wheel drive. Saw goats on the way, confident you would find them at Skippers --- if you have a 4 x4 to get...

Have to work and do Xmas stuff sorry.

Some advice though. I'm not much of a hunter yet, but fuck up the odd armed tramp by shooting something.
1) be there at first light or dusk.
2) Keep the...

As has been said, they are not bullet proof. Anything you shoot red deer with will be fine. I think sensible calibers where you just go and buy ammunition, point it at the right place and then go...

140 grain Amax, 50 grain N560, CCI primer, Lapua case @ 79.8mm oal goes pretty well in my T3.
140 grain interlock, 49 grains N560, CCI primer, lapua brass, 78.8m oal, gives just over 2800fps. This...

Nice! Cheers for sharing

Awesome ---- enjoy the spoils of your hard work. Sounds like you are hooked!!

You can loose a lot of weight from a pack by deciding what is absolutely necessary vs luxury. Look carefully at food, cookers etc. Do you need a pretty stainless mug when a light cheap plastic mug...

The carbon stock will definitely lighten it up a bit. Really though if you continue down this road how much bang for your buck are you getting? If it is to make your rifle cool / a project for you,...

NICE!!

The above statements ring very true with me. I re-started hunting with a 270 with a 20 inch barrel. Heaps of muzzle blast, ringing ears if no earmuffs used. Killed a few deer with it, probably...

Nice - sounds very trustworthy

Wow!!

Good stuff

If the budget is not an issue talk to Mt Cook Airlines --- Mark Hayes the piolet will know where to take you

Good stuff.

Cheers - slipped in quietly from the other forum.

saw a couple last time i was there. No rifle of course. Think I was a bit lucky too, not a whole lot of sign. Lots of grass to feed on. Fishing is good.
