    Pretty & Classy rifles. Lets see them!

    Yes measured across the lands as opposed to bore diameter and cartridge length. I'm a big Jim Corbett fan and always wanted a 275. Mine is custom rifle I had made here in Aus I agree it is a great hunting round, I've often said they could never have created another rifle calibre after 1905...

    Llama Hunting - Prices 2021- Ouch

    Correct, nothing is truly free. If I was an Englishman I wouldn't watch cricket either haha I kid. I don't know what's more aussie than sitting under the shade of a redgum on a hot day with a beer in one hand, fishing rod in the other listening to the cricket on the wireless around Christmas time.

    Hunter fatally shot near Kremmling

    This made news in Aus, i don't understand how it could ever happen. As soon as the quarry is dead if I didn't have the gun unloaded I got kicked up the arse by dad. Gun safety is a conditioned fear to me as an adult...

    What Cartridges Have You Killed Big Game With This Season?

    Well mine was about to meet his end but then he bailed up my mother inlaw which got him back in the good books with me for a while, when he knocked my 5yo nephew to the ground I decided it had gone far enough.

    Vortex opinions

    I do get what you're saying and I agree to an extent, but if you can afford to go better there is a real difference to be had.

    I'd do it again in a heartbeat, that A7 shoots lights out at any range I shoot. Seriously underrated gun, though they're not cheap anymore. Is the clarity worth the money? If you hunt here where animals are subject to 12 month seasons and no tag limits you need every second of daylight to get...

    Llama Hunting - Prices 2021- Ouch

    If you ladies want to complain about prices for hunting related gear move to Australia. I just ordered a new rifle for $1500 that retails for around $600 in the states. And that's the norm being half a world away from everywhere. I saw someone complained about $800 for a gun dog, try to find a...

    Ever tried to split a hair with a blunt knife? Both are great, better than Zeiss too. There are differences if you get the range finder models but that is personal preference not quality. I ran Meopta's for a while but compared to Swaro and Leica whenever I had the chance and despite what some...

    LOWA ranger reviews

    G'day, My last pair of boots are knackered after my last mountain hunt a few weeks back. I loved them but they're no longer made so I'm looking to try something new. Wondering if anyone has tried the LOWA rangers and what you thought of them? Old pair Cheers

    SG sales

    I try to keep an eye out on here but they don't come up too often. High end second hand American packs don't really exist in Australia because its such a pain to get them here when people do they keep them. We have Australian and NZ brands, all made in China and nothing with external meat shelves

    SG sales

    Our tax years run July through end June, but it's more about being in the one purchase as opposed to financial year. You could split it but then I'm paying double postage and postage on large items isn't cheap to Aus.

    SG sales

    G'day, I've been spending more time researching packs than I'd like and ended up deciding to go with a SG sky 5900. The whole thing of packs not coming with lids, bladder sleeves, pouches, rifle slings and rain covers makes as much sense to me as selling a new car without an engine but that's...

    ELK URINE

    I believe CWD remains active in urine for years. They canned stuff you buy comes from farms and it has been suggested that it could aid dispersal.
