No. You're correct, edible wild animals rarely do come wrapped and packaged. The last one I shot was a 532 lb Kudu bull which I'd stalked for 2 hours in the Messina bush veld. He appeared by my side...

In my opinion, none of this has anything remotely to do with the hunting of animals.
It's the cost of the shot that makes it unviable. If you happen to mould your own slugs/buckshot or need a specialised load, it's well worth it and rewarding.
Also bear in mid that for specific...
Knew a gynaecologist who owned a Poulan 36cc once. Does that count?
Your chainsaw man can't be a true sawer of wood. The best Husky ever made is the 55. My bank details on request...
Jeez, that sounds bloody awful. A possum is after all a living,feeling animal and as such it should be afforded a humane death, if you must kill it.
I've never had a problem with either Gun City or my Rossi Pomba. Purchases are always a simple thing from the Christ Church franchise. I identify what it is that I want, the price I'm willing to pay,...
Holy Hell! Gapped Axe, you've taken us full circle with this thread and you win the box of piss! Well done mate!
Over population /more shooters/declining habitat/ semi auto shotguns = 1. Ducks = 0.
See, told ya. The Gun City 870 will bring them home every time. Was it a near shot, mate? Within 300metres..?
Pengy, your mates doing it right. Good on her.
Once saw a guy burn down 6 acres of pine forest and a fair length of telephone cable and wires with a WW11 303 tracer round. Shot a pine tree at 100 metres. The bullet bounced off and into the dry...
ChrisF, I think you've go it in one mate. Well said.
Firearm registry has been a feature in South Africa for ever. All the criminals I ever accosted with rusty AK 47s', Norinco 9mm hand guns, Baby Brownings' and Homemades etc. never held a licence or...
And no one believes that NZ is over hunted and that 1080 really kills everything?
Makes you wonder about all the bad stuff one hears about Norinco, Gun City 870 etc. Mine is still spitting out everything I load in it. Cost $299...
The Norinco JW15 is plenty accurate. I have the 16" barrel synthetic one. It's taken a couple of bricks for the trigger to smooth out. Be wary of the steel 9 shot Norinco mags though, I've always had...
It should be remembered that Government deer culling ended in the 80's, therefore it's entirely possible that the deer numbers increased from almost f..k all thereafter. My point is that in...
In my opinion,New Zealand has become vastly over populated very quickly. This obviously leads to all sorts of mishaps occurring, vehicular, firearm and otherwise . The roads of yester year are unable...
Ahh... good then. I'll keep pumping the bugger. Cheers.
Not taking the piss at all,mate. Shot the shit out of mine. Home load slugs, buck 00 and ring the gong at 100 metres more often than not with round ball and Lee 1 oz. Even shot clays. I realise that...
Gun City 870 is a piece of shit? Pray tell why, please mate.
If reloading data gives you the shits mate, try taking a dose of Pepto-Bismol. Reloading is a pleasant pass-time and the last thing one needs is the 'runs'. Hope this helps.
Well, there is. I note on the electronic scales, they provide a 'calibration weight'. On any other beam scale, I'd be very hesitant to weigh a projectile (BULLET) and take that as a standard to check...
Anyone loaded with AR2205 for Frontier 245gr plated bullets in 44 magnum in a 23" Rossi barrel or similar? I've read about 22gr-24gr IMR 4227 published stuff, but would like someone who has actually...
