I have a FX chronograph. It only goes up to 1100 fps. As it sits behind the muzzle it should not get damaged by a centrefire. I've used it with subsonic blackout loads as well as for air rifles.

Hi,
I 'm not sure what you mean about the genetics? Out hazel trees are whiteheart, but the deer seem to prefer eating the bark off our Cyprus forestry block behind the hazel trees. As for the...

I've made jerky in the oven on fan bake and low temp. It's turned out great. What does a proper dehydrator do that would make it worth getting one?

We had venison shanks over the weekend. I did them based on this recipe https://www.thespruceeats.com/rosemary-garlic-lamb-shanks-recipe-101494 Which was delicious and I liked the fact it's just a...

I was at Gunworks yesterday afternoon and they were carting in quite a few boxes of Norma cases!

Not exactly a hunting knife, but I did cut a venison pizza with it on Sunday night :yum:

We are West of Christchurch

Yeah, mum is out there and a 2 year old stag

My bad, I think you are right :O_O:

I found this feral deer in our Hazel tree block. There have been a few breeding in the area, but my partner was not keen to shoot any until I showed her how much they have damaged some of the trees....

I bought this RWS Scimitar from GS in Christchurch recently. it needed some love, as the o-rings had all perished. After fixing I took it out on Sunday and got this hare with a kneeling shot from 50M...

The speed won't be exactly what it says on the box. From the few brands of subsonic ammo I've chrono'd you can easily get +- 50 fps. Shooting subs, my .22LR rifle with a suppressor is quieter than...

The plate with the writing is possibly glued or stuck with double sided adhesive. There may be 1 or more screws underneath it.

Gudday, Good work! Nice to catch up the other day.

This may be old hat to some of you, but I usually toss my hare carcases after removing the back straps and legs. I thought I would have a go at making a soup stock. I split the ribs and coated it in...

Unless you have a mate who can bore it out, selling it and buying a used 30 cal one would be cheaper would it not?

You should be able to import a spring/gas ram or co2 air rifle without a permit. For a PCP you will need a permit and a firearms licence. for a pistol not much chance of getting a permit.

Out of all of these ones here https://www.shooterssupplies.co.nz/shop/firearms/air-guns-blanks/air-rifle/
I would pick the Benjamin rouge. Good value cause is used. .22 cal is my preference

As gonetropo says a PCP would be the way to go, especially if you want something lower powered than a .22LR. A PCP's can be a slippery slope to spending $$ :D
If you don't have a FAL, then springer...

The "proper" name for a air rifle gas ram or nitro piston etc, is Ta da - gas spring. They perform exactly the same job as a steel spring. The main advantage a gas spring has is that it does not...

I bought a couple of things recently. An ultra sonic cleaner took 2 months, scope rings 4 weeks.

I got one of those 11 gun safes, it holds scoped 5 rifles.

Ha, my Jewish girlfriend used it in the 90's when I lived in the USA.

I would ignore it, but tell the gunsmith I was not happy as I asked them not to damage the thread. Being a bit OC myself I would possibly make a tool to remove the burr from the thread if I ever was...

Ah, it was on trademe, he was going to buy it if he could mount a scope, but I just had a look and someone else has bought it now!
