    I don't want to derail the thread but you're right in my opinion. Racism in the states is more a symptom of the problem than the problem itself. I was having this chat on the weekend just been with my mates partner who is from Colorado. You guys have a class problem, the divide between the rich...

    Nope, never heard of one around here. Far less common than with your whitetail.

    A7 sako magazine

    The A7 is an underrated rifle. Light, handles and shoots well. I love the rubberised stock for hunting in all weather conditions. I was hestiant selling my sako 75 but aside from the magazine I much prefer my A7. I do miss my 85 bavarian but the leica binos I bought with the money are ky...

    I thought that was how hollow points where made?

    Haven't been on the forum for a while so thought I'd chuck up a coming back story. Got a pounding headache currently so I'll be brief. Unfortunately due to Covid we lost our hunting privileges for a couple of months here, which happened to extend through the entirety of the red stag rut and hog...

    When I was a kid and saw a statue I'd ask my dad who it was, from there I'd learn about. As an adult I see a statue and if I don't know about them I'll look it up. Presentism is a big problem in all this, people apply today's morals and ideologies to things that have happened in a time where...

    I agree, my gandfather and his family fled France during WW2 to escape nazi's, in the process lost everything they had. I hold no malice towards Germany or it's citizens, nor any monuments (Auschwitz included). If we don't accept and learn from history we are doomed to repeat it. Removing...

    I don't understand, is that butter flavoured syrup?

    "If I could save the union without freeing any slaves I would do it" - Abraham Lincoln. Wonder when his statue is coming down? George Orwell wrote 1984 as a warning not an instruction manual!

    Sing your Tikka praises!

    Tikka and sako are easily the best selling rifles in Australia and NZ. Put a limbsaver on them and they're really the best value for money gun you'll find. I've owned sako 75 and 85, both great guns, got plenty of mates with sako or tikka. I now have a Sako A7 which is kind of a hybridised...

    Ahhhhh the off season.

    Australia and New Zealand is just kicking into gear, there's always an 'on season' somewhere!

    What’s your occupation?

    Wanted to be a biologist, studied to be an ecologist, got offered a job before I finished post grad so spent a few years securing and rehabilitating wetlands, waterways and remnant vegetation. Pay in conservation work is not great in Australia. For a couple of years I supplemented it with some...

    What truck will BigFin purchase?

    Given that Nissan Titans are $140k in Aus I'd hate to know what the Raptor would cost.

    What is the 1 rifle you regretted buying or wished you never had bought?

    People often say this, but really these days almost all rifles have reasonable accuracy with at least some type of ammunition.

    Invasive Mtn Goats in GTNP have to go

    It's times like these I wonder if I did the right thing bringing a kid into this world.
