    Congrats to all. Chris your gal looks over the moon at the result. Its awesome to see the ladies out there getting amongst it. And that is one top camp setup. Big American 4X4s are just so adept at towing good size caravans into the backcountry. That is something that most Aussies don't get...

    All the info I found showed that RL-17 was very temperature insensitive at the temps I hunt across.

    Thank you. I am very happy with how it turned and and now stoked it is shooting so well. Southfort Labs make a good product. Likely very affordable for US Tikka owners given the exchange rate.

    I thought I should add some of my experiences here so others may get some insight and maybe ideas. I have been using a Sauer 202 in 3006 but a trip into the Victorian High Country after Sambar last year on a back pack hunt convinced me that a 12 pound rifle was to heavy to carry in steep thick...

    Ladies & Gents I got some feedback on the John Royle on NZ Tahr Podcast that the sound quality was very poor. And rightly so.
