Choice old time pics, those were the days alright , will never be like that again to much bullshit to put up with these days.

We didn't use much Hirtenburg but what we did use was good stuff.

That's a cracker, the 222 is a good performer on deer, punches well above its size. I found the Sako ammo pretty good when we used it in the Forest Service.

Looks like the 223 did the job ok Bruce

Well you should they were some of the best days we could ever experience. Would love to be able to buy a Sako Vixen with Sako rings and a Weaver 4 X for $ 240 brand new again.

I remember back when we were culling the Rangitoto Range inland from Otrohonga, at the time there was a fencer working on the farm we had our base camp at. Any deer we shot that we didn't use were...
