    I went for a walk and culled a few feral goats with my 13.5" SBR AR15. Here's a film:

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight ~3-15 power FFP/Mil scopes?

    Not entirely as lightweight as I'd prefer. Here's hoping there's a new Leupold Mk5 now that they have the VX5. 3-15x44 FFP mil/TMR lit 600gms c'mon......

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight ~3-15 power FFP/Mil scopes?

    It's a shame there's nothing new and exciting coming out in the way of a lightweight 3-12 or 3-15x 50 FFP high quality scope

    Hunting & Fishing Long Range Rimfire Rabbits

    I went for a walk this evening between rain showers, and shot some "long range" rabbits with my custom Savage MkII .22LR - "long range" in this case being between 60 and 150 metres. Film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs0o5zTEP8E

    Savage MkII Custom

    I wanted a more accurate .22 than my old 10/22, so I bought a used Savage MkII FS, then it sat in my safe un-used for 2 years because I couldn't get a decent stock for it - Boyds' wouldn't export to NZ. Since thegunrack.co.nz is now importing Boyds' stocks, I finally managed to get one and made...

    Hunting & Fishing Film 39: First deer with the 147gr ELD-M

    I went for a quick hunting trip to find a deer since the weather forecast was incredible for early winter - and found one! Featuring ice, deer, and a rather useless cameraman (me). This was my first kill with the 147gr ELD-M out of my .260, and I am impressed so far. https://youtu.be/w6KosLqhN88

    Rifle Scopes 20 min. Base for Sako action

    I have a custom rail made here in NZ by Waitaki Engineering on my Sako 85; I had the top of the action drilled and tapped to fit. It's a good solution if you don't mind having a couple of holes in your action - presumably the Near Mfg etc are similar. Roedale Precision in Germany make a...

    Film 37: 260 handloads - 147gr ELD-M

    I started working up some handloads for the new Hornady 147gr 6.5mm ELD-M in my .260 Sako 85. I say "new" because we only just got them here in New Zealand last week. Here's the initial results (and some other stuff): https://youtu.be/xBg7rO9gWi0

    A friend and I just spent 5 days on a walk-in public land trip, hunting Red Stags in the roar, in the Marlborough region of New Zealand. Here's the film! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c96mP5L9E7M

    New rifle - Blaser R8

    A stuck case from defective over-pressure ammunition, then. "Jam" is a pretty wide term... I haven't encountered it or heard of anyone encountering a stuck case in a Blaser. I'm not sure how well it'd extract. Load ammunition to safe pressures, no problem? I have been told by Blaser...

    New rifle - Blaser R8

    Its one thing I don't like much, but it's just the trigger lever really. It's necessary with the action layout.
