I was in your position just shy of 2 year ago. Went .308 for ease and cost of ammo and cheaper to suppress than .270.
Was going to buy a Howa package as it was everything and in that bracket....
Cheers for the advice guys, still a bit conflicted with pros and cons think just I’ll pop back in store and make my mind up on the spot. Big believer in buy once cry once…
Looking at jackets at HnF as I’ve got $400 on a voucher to spend there. Would be nice to have something I can throw hood up and not get soaked when it rains. What’s the draw card of an odyssey vs...
Earlier in the year 10 we’re taken by one of the cullers. From what locals who hunt in there have said she’s hard going and pretty dense bush.
I’ve just had a 20” 308 tikka taken down to 16” running Sako Gamehead pro 150gn at 2767fps/20” to 2664fps/16”. Sako ballistics app is pretty accurate for their barrel lengths and factory rounds and...
I’ve got the cheaper Bdx one. Works good and dial up matches Sako app to around 500 yards. Only annoying thing is display isn’t lit up like previous Sig I had. Can only load one set of data at a time...
Out of interest what brand is the bore snake you’re using? Need to get one may as well get something that works…cheers
Hi mate have sent pm not sure if it’s come through with issues some people are having.
That would be awesome will send you a pm.
Is this back in action? Happy to throw some courier tickets in with it for next few trips it does.
Or does any one have one around around Northland I could throw 2 shots over? Would like to get an...
Depends a lot on if there’s chassis rust. I passed up a foreman 450 of similar age/condition for 2.5k on trademe last month. Unfortunately trailer won’t add value for a lot of people too.
Pm sent
We currently have a forestry crew there who are generally there from wee hours of the morning. They haven’t seen any sign in last 3 months as opposed to crew in woodhill who nearly hit a few on the...
I’m not sure how to do that and it’s not a BDX unit so not sure whether it’s even capable of that. I’m keen on a BDX unit for the ballistics but for the hunting I’m doing currently and any time soon...
Thanks emailed him few days ago and ended up passing on serial for him to check age. Guess he’s still waiting to hear back.
From a bit of looking it appears they are the NZ agent but...
Hi guys I’ve got a Sig 2000 rangefinder with a glitch in display which must be close to being past warranty. Is there a dealer that is approachable with this type of question in NZ? Sound cheap I...
I was watching a set of BX1 but went just under $500 and most people seem to rate BX2 at a similar level to Diamondback.
Never had much joy buying things secondhand but I guess if the extra value...
Hey guys after opinions on best bang for bucks on cheapish 10x42 binos. Got a budget of $4-500 max and would prefer new. Will be used for open country stuff and cutover forestry blocks.
Been...
Makes sense I was thinking the same thing with heading out after or during heavy rain as the floor was so bloody noisy. Hoping to get to deer country but change in workload is putting a lid on that...
Not to derail the thread completely but any tips for tangihua first in the morning or direction etc? Went in to houtu last weekend for a look around but no joy there. Was awfully dry under foot...
Is that Tangihua mate?
What’s the email address you use if I can ask?
Not sure how comparable it’ll be to your region. Think it was 5 weeks from application to interviews then 2 weeks for licence to turn up even though issue date shows it was approved couple of days...
Cheers guys will give it a crack and hope it doesn’t take too long!
