    Drop Test Pass/Fail

    In addition to the spread sheet if Form added Pass, Fail, or Ongoing to the title of each test it would make for a quick reference point.

    Garmin alpha 200 carry options?

    I use this and really like it. I attach it to my bino harness or pack shoulder straps. https://hunterselement.com.au/products/latitude-gps-pouch

    Fishnet base layers. They work, and you want them.

    Yeah, I see your point. Seems crazy to have pants of this quality, with these feature, and no choice of length.

    Fishnet base layers. They work, and you want them.

    Thank you. I seem to remember reading somewhere about the length being deliberately long to allow tailoring to the individual. For the price of them this seems like a bit of a stuff around. The Keb Agile are the ones I have been eyeing off.

    What Fjallraven pants have you found best for NZ alps hunting? I’m planning on crossing the ditch soon to chase some tahr and chamy.

    FORMADILIOUS.........I'm calling you OUT!!

    No I haven’t tried them. I have tried Hornady 68g BTHPs though and they were consistently half MOA.

    FORMADILIOUS.........I'm calling you OUT!!

    I have an R8 .223 barrel and it shoots the 77 TMKs about 1.5 MOA. I haven’t shot them past 200 so can’t comment on whether the stability drop off past that. It is an extremely accurate barrel with the lighter projectiles I’ve tried.

    Reliable Short Range Whitetail Scope

    The scopes I have and use for similar purposes are NF SHV 3-10, Trijicon Accupoint 3-9 with the triangle post, and a S&B 6x42. They’ve all work well for me.

    RedKettle - 50% off sale

    I ordered the wind jacket in the sale and after the shipping notice said it was sitting in England for about two weeks I was starting to think it was lost. I emailed Red Kettle about it and received a fairly prompt reply. They continued to chase it up and give me updates. Eventually it turned...

    Training a bird dog at 5?

    Two pieces of 2”x4” clapped together can make a surprisingly loud clap that I have used in the past as a substitute for early stages of training to gun shot.

    Braque du Bourbonnais?

    I have a vizsla and he is pretty close to what you have said you’re after. In saying that though I believe that it’s probably a case that there are many breeds that if you research you’ll find a breeder that gives you a better chance of a dog with the size and traits you want.

    Q&A Zeiss LRP S5 3-18x50mm Field Eval

    Thanks for getting these tests underway again guys, they’re great. Form, have you got any experience with older Zeiss scopes? I’ve had a couple of older Victory model scopes for about 10 years and they haven’t let me down. They aren’t dialled.

    Blaser

    Top loading isn’t an issue, just takes a little more force to push rounds down then in a more traditional type magazine. I do find it easier to remove the trigger unit to load rounds. I’ve also never tried to remove the magazine insert while the trigger unit is fitted, but I’d guess it’s...

    Blaser

    I have an R8 Pro with .223, 30-06, and .375h&h barrels. It is a great system, with everything just working, and it is very accurate. As has been mentioned it isn’t a lite weight, but it’s manageable. Mine has been my primary hunting rifle for 6 or 7 years and it hasn’t let me down.

    S&B Klassik 8x56mm Field Evaluation Q&A

    I’m considering getting a S&B 6x42 Klassic Hungarian with the 1” tube to put on a .243 I use for deer. Shots are 20-300. Form do you have any experience with this model and what are your thoughts on it for this type of hunting?

    Anyone else get a new pup this year?

    My Vizsla pup is 9 months old now. He’s being trained to indicate deer and retrieve.

    Why Match/Target Bullets For Hunting

    Great information here. Form, for a 1 in 10 twist .243 for 400 yards and in hunting do you think the 95 NBT would be the way to go?
