    Howa Mini Action

    I have one in 204 , for a knock about rifle they are pretty hard to beat on cost and accuracy wise. I love mine except the mag release which you can knock easily so have shaved it down a lot. This has pretty much fixed the problem

    Catching fish in the new boat

    So after a month my new boat was ready. Quintrex 430 fishabout pro. Upgraded to a 60 and the braked trailer. Was a dream to tow. Also got the tonneau Cover. Picked probably the worst day in Vic to put it on the water with 100kph wind warnings so just did a quick lap of the canals at Patto with...

    Fox and fallow success

    Went out for a spotlight last night on a farm I have access to and came across a den of young fox pups in an area of about 100m and managed to shoot 3 that I saw.

    Loadin' 'em whole: a question

    lump of timber or 3 steel poles welded together and small electric winch which we plugged into an anderson plug which we wired into the back and you can hook up to the bed of your truck and then remove the winch when not required. About $50 for the winch. My grandfather had this setup into his...

    Weired things that happened in the field

    Was duck hunting with my cousin on a friends farm, it was a new property and we left in the dark to head towards waters, out of the gloom appeared a shiny round circle about 30 yards in diameter, we all assumed it was a dry sandy bowl but when my cousin stepped on it as he was about 3 steps...

    Day I nearly drowned when hunting

    Its amazing how you look back on hunting moments that can define yourself for better and worse. One of the worse moments in my hunting career came when i was about 20 years old and thought nothing could hurt me. Some background: Hound hunting for deer takes you through all sorts of country...
