    Complete Chassis Reference Guide!pics,prices,links

    Re: Ultimate chassis reference guide! pics,price,links Edit. Great idea. Bit of Legwork done for you. XLR does a ton so didn't list them all. Same with some of the Remington 700 footprint actions. Like i'm gonna list them all. <span style="font-weight: bold">MDT Tac21</span> R700 LA & SA...

    possibly joining marine corps

    Re: possibly joining marine corps Get a university degree while you're young. Fact. Most universities outside of the Ivy League type (ie: ones without their heads up their ass), have a 60-70% female percentage. Where i study our uni specialises in Health Sciences, there's 75 Paramedic...

    Sooo i may make the trip across the big pond.

    Scared white city boy wants to go to the big USA. And whilst i'd love to see the grand canyon, statue of liberty, ect... i can't help but think i'd be missing the real america. I mean, when anyone thinks of australia, they probably think of this: whereas most of us live in places like...

    First precision rifle & first outing (part 1)

    Re: First precision rifle & first outing Ditch the South African stuff. My ruger shoots better than this if i feed it the proper stuff. AIAE is an incredible rifle but using ex-mil ball ammo isn't doing it justice. Equate this setup to a Porsche 911, except you're running re-treads on it.

    Hunting & Fishing I'm getting soft-hearted...

    Re: I'm getting soft-hearted... Always felt bad about it, but never stopped me. Got worse after I became a paramedic and started seeing human death en masse. I'll still hunt for food, it's part of the natural order and more humane than slaughtered meat. But i won't just blast anything that...

    Hunting & Fishing Where would you go? What would you hunt?

    Re: Where would you go? What would you hunt? Camels and Pigs, preferably from a chopper, in the Northern Territory or FNQld (seriously, look it up. great southern land has alot to offer). While you're up there, go after buffalo. Anything in New Zealand (suck it yanks, costs me $85 to fly...

    Hunting & Fishing How young is too young to take your kids hunting?

    Re: How young is too young to take your kids hunting? Depends on the kid. Do you think they're ready? If you think there is any chance they could point a loaded firearm in the wrong direction, or there is any chance they could flat out ignore/disobey your instructions, then they're too young.

    M40A5 Build

    Re: M40A5 Build Plus the GAP is deadly accurate, if you have the money and don't feel any sentiment toward building vs buying, go with it. if you're a beginner/short on funds/sentimental then you're probably not going to want to dive into such a project from the start. Great thing about the...

    Tikka T3 varmint

    Re: Tikka T3 varmint The varmint & lite are the same mate, aside from the barrel. Just grab a Lite and rebarrel. Cheaper than a TRG and you'll have a hunterweight .308 barrel to sell, shouldn't cost you too much.

    howa 1500?

    Re: howa 1500? If they made it in lefty i'd have about 3 by now. Brilliant sticks, especially when you consider how much you pay for them. The new way they sell them (build-your-own) is brilliant especially for new shooters who may not want to spend ages customising or setting up their rifles.

    For those of you with adjustable cheek piece

    Re: For those of you with adjustable cheek piece If you're worried about weight go with the Karsten, or go for the good old mousepads and duck tape. But think, would you rather miss that deer and carry back that extra 1lb, or carry back 70lb of deer?

    Tikka T3 varmint

    Re: Tikka T3 varmint Wouldn't surprise me if they're not, or they're just being under-advertised. The Tacticals sell well already and people were catching on that the Varmint was the same thing just without the rail on the top. Suppliers/Dealers might be reducing their inventory to push the...
