Bird season starts today. 3 quail and a rooster so far.

Rogee is using a March on one rifle (300 wsm), and I think a Leupold on the 308. He does drop some pretty average shots though - sometimes I wonder how he figures his wind calls but he is getting out plenty so good on him. There are a hell of a lot more deer shot inside 50m than past 400, but...

That's a Heartbreaker. The more you love them, the more it hurts. Dogs don't live long enough.

I bought a "KwikKlip" https://www.trexlerindustries.com/kwik-klip/ bottom metal and a couple of mags for my SA R700 when it was a 260, and when I opened the bolt face up for a SAUM it just took a little opening the feed lips to get the fatter case sitting in a place where it would feed. The...

A few more. I pretty much live on venison, so have to knock a few over each year

We don't have a hunting season as such in NZ - its on 365 days a year, so I'll start a 2024 thread with some of this year's deer. Not much grin in the photos, I'm usually hunting alone

Irony, much?

And now, completely unwanted in NZ, our ex Prime Minister lives in the US, and works at Harvard. You're welcome.

Not really, I think our issues are more due to low quality politicians than a nefarious plot to run the place via NWO puppets. I also don't think our 7000 police could make much of a state. It seems there is quite a gap between reality and the news - you might even have seen some of that...

Somebody asked McClownrider55 how stupid he was and the duck guy decided to make a competition out of it.

Loving life

Try making a press out of a 3' length of heavy I beam, a bottle jack and a couple of strongbacks. Shouldn't cost much, and cheaper than cutting from plate, that's for sure.

I use one on my hunting rifle. Can't beat slinging up seated for shooting over scrub and tussock. Turner biothane for the win.

Waiting for bird season to get here. The first Saturday in May can't arrive fast enough
