As others have probably already said, a 270 is a big cartridge, easily large enough for the biggest bull you might encounter. 140 or 150 gr loads seem pretty available, in the country around there...

Check when it was last hit by DOC, I think I remember hearing from a few chaps that it's been hit a few times in the last few years.
Damn they are a good looking rifle back in their original set up.
Not my sort of cup of tea with all intro in your face to be honest, but gave you a sub to support the channel. go on you for getting out there.
You would be easier to drop it off at thee butchery in Cromwell Mall, that's nice and close, well priced and they are easy to work with.
I just have a deer put into salami the other weeks after a...
I have never lived in Kaz but lived in the Russian Federation for a few years, My only applicable advice would be to cool you shoots until the war is over, Currently, NZ is classified as an...
While all this arguing about what is cocked and what is not is great, to answer the question from my own personal preference, I hunt with Howa 1500s with almost all my rifles in several calibers. ...
I'm planning for the start of September so the water level is less of a worry, more if it passable by truck or it will need to be a hike in job.
Cheers for the info though, I'm guessing it's been...
As the title suggests, I'm planning a trip to pop on up to the Grawler hut, that's up the Rangitata river, then up the Havelock.
I haven't been up there myself for 5 years plus probably now and I...
Done and dusted now, this thread was a few years old now, I ended up getting access to a 10,000ha station near me that made transporting my horse there much easier. I some my horse about a year ago...
Damn you, I'm hooked now, motivating me to get out again
I think from memory it might have the factory size on their website for the 30cal ones.
If i'm not mistaken, the cans are all the same just drilled out for different bore sizes.
Possibly up there in the public blocks, I have personally seen no shortage of animals around, more that ever before to my mind.
Those areas probably get hit pretty hard as access is not too hard.
From what I've seen in our part of the would, granted more Central Otago than up steam, but the numbers have been very good everywhere I have looked. I have seen a lot more fellow that I have before...
That Video is amazing, I wish I had known that years ago.
This one is a Howa lightweight cut down to 17.5 for the DPT mag suppressor to be flush. I run 120g NBT hand loaded.
Originally it was for horseback hunting but now wears a walnut stock and is just...
That is a good point, I have a vac sealer and plenty of freezer space. This is more or a project, I suppose it's not too different to jar preserving which might be way easier in the sort of proof of...
Was interested in hearing if anybody knows about the old rabbit canaries they used to have in Central and how they prepped the meat.
My father-in-law back in the motherland has started on a bit of...
Is that a 30" tablet you got there against a fridge box?
But seriously, if you do this with your rig, why not shoot a bit further out.
I live in Central Otago, we have heaps of huge open...
Done, the last time I wen up with the NZDA and Phil Wilson, we saw nothing but bulls and juvi bulls. interesting to see what others experiences were.
Pop over to Stuart island, population is still good over there from all accounts.
I do believe land owners in Otago are required to control pests on their own property. I know the reginal council is always after the lowborn lifestyle blockers and such for failing to do it. Not...
I agree, the biggest issue with these rifles is the trigger drift pins come loose and mine has even gone off with a knock as the sear isn't really enough grab.
Very sad, he was a member of the local Alexandra deerstalkers I believe, He seemed like a really nice chap, I only met him a couple of times at meetings, can say I knew him but this will also hit the...
if no-one is keen on the swap I might be keen to buy the 120NBT, am down to about the same in stock and starting to pick my shots a bit too carefully haha
