I’ll try and get back there ASAP to have a look with the dogs, the shot was solid and the only reason i gave up looking was because he didn’t squeal and there was no blood to be found, although it...
Hi guys, last night I was out for a bit of pest control with the thermals and put a good stalk on a big boar. Got in to about 30 metres and sat down to take a shot. My gun is a tikka .308 1/8 twist...
Shot this boy last sunday, any ideas on his age? He's not massive for where I hunt but he's the biggest I've seen since the bucks were in velvet.

Cheers, i'll pick up some standard velocities and see how they go. Is the meat still edible even thought the bullets are led?
Yeah getting in close on goats is dead easy, i went for a hunt on saturday and we walked straight past a mob of 20 goats about 5 yards away from us and they didnt even look up! Could have poleaxed a...
Bit late to consider other rifles as i've already blown all my coin on a .22, i've got a 50 pack of velocitors and i'll see how it groups, im going for a hunt next weekend so want to get some ammo...
I'm shooting out of a Cz455 target barrel with a gunworks suppressor
Cheers for the info, i had been advised that hollow points were a waste of time and wouldn't penetrate the skull but from some of the research i've done and what you've said it sounds like the hollow...
G'day, i'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on whether copper plated hollow points (CCI Velocitors) or solid lead (CCI Standard Velocity) are better for headshooting goats with a .22lr Cheers.
It's so cheap it makes me nervous
Ill buy a 22 magnum barrel then if you think it could kill pigs and goats, sounds perfect.
Looking at ammo prices 100 rounds of 223 is about $200 for 100 give or take, and 17 is 270 for 500. I don't think that a 223 is right for me right now just due to ammo cost, i think ill just buy a CZ...
Alright, well my dad just got a 223 and i've shot multiple deer with them, but i want to get my own setup for close stalking and quiet shooting pigs and goats and a good all rounder, but i dont think...
What do you guys think of them? Thinking of getting one as my first rifle to shoot pigs goats and small game with. Wondering if i should just say fuck it and buy a .223 instead of a 22lr/17. The only...
Vortex Diamondback hd. My best and most recent purchase.
I know it's not totally relevant but we've got a merc 250hp on our 770 and it's gone 1000 hours and never needed any major repair. We also have a merc 60 on our stabi 430 that has 300 odd ours and...
Yeah i'm definetly not wanting to spend that much even if i could. I'm wanting to get something for around a grand with a scope on it to have a bit of fun practicing my stalking when i get sick of my...
Sorry my original message wasn't clear. The gun didnt change calibers it only changed barrels, i believe it had one shorty barrel, one threaded barrel with a suppressor and one with iron sights. I...
Hey all reading this. I saw a rifle a while back that had interchangeable barrels, like the ends were threaded and they would screw on and off. I don't remember where i saw it or much about it but i...
Thanks for the pictures and good input, i'm pretty easy in terms of quality of glass. These will be my first pair of binos and i'll probably upgrade sometime next year, i just need something for...
I'm 14 so 8x10s should be right
G'day, i'm in the process of buying a pair of binos, and i'm deciding on whether i should buy the Vortex Diamondback HD 10x42 or 8x42. I do a lot of open country hunting and spotting, so i'm...
Hi, my name is Jasper and i live in Nelson. My father owns a farm down in murch and i go hunting on there with him and our mated almost every weekend. I've been fishing in AKL almost my whole life,...
No joy on there but cheers for the suggestion, might buy some other things from them.
