A friend of mine in Dorkland is buying his first deer rifle and keeps asking me for opinions, etc.

Can you guys recomend an internet site there in NZ that he could talk with people there about this kind of stuff?

Tell him to just get 7mm08

Thanks James, I sent him the link.

Ditto. 7mm/08. Easy to shoot. Accurate. Tikka T3 stainless lite topped with 3.5x10 Leupold VX3. First and last deer rifle needed - on second thought good starting deer outfit Once is never enough

Tell him to go to www.accuratereloading.com/ They have a forum set up for Australians and Kiwis. They also have a lot of information on deer rifles.

Tell him to just ignore a few morons and stay away from the Political Forum.

I don't know who you are, but what have you done with TP?

Well "Kiwis" don't like to spend more $10 on a box of ammo and are little bitches when it comes to recoil so,i give up on telling people they need a magnum.

Ahhhh there you are, jeez, you had me worryed for a moment.

Yup - not many of us recoil junkies out there - but we are all cheap when it comes to factory ammo ...

Frank,
Can you blame them? Your avatar is solely responsible for turning many a good men into wankers.

Gidday Guys,

You talk about wankers like we are something bad. Anyone who doesn't is either a liar or don't know what they are missing!

He at least they are doing it with someone they like.

Happy Hunting

Yip you are right Bakes,but most shooters here don't like to spent more $10 on a box of ammo and are cowards about recoil.

TP That's why God invented Reloading and the Saying "Harden the **** up!"

7mm-08 is a pussies calibre, sure its typically accurate, easy to shoot and well suited to most game in Aussie an NZ but its about as entertaining as an episode of Neighbors. If you must have that, grow some nuts and get a 7x57.

It pisses me off as much as the current trend here of installing Suppressors on Centre Fires. Again, for pussies, they look grotesque as well. That's like buying the biggest baddest sub-woofer and playing Enya through it!

Ahh see now I'm pissed! Wheres a Beer!

Yes i am not a fan of suppressors either,but that said anything that helps people shooting better has got to be a good thing.

Best line yet. Have to agree, suppressors ruin a perfectly good rifle, and are not worth it unless you are a professional fireing hundreds of shots per week. Its the big con at the moment.

This might do, no its not mine.
