Absolutely stunning rifle, congrats on your acquisition. I certainly admire your dedication to old school quality and simplicity. No good for me, I'd want to drill and tap it. Can't see past the light on a dark night. Congrats again and thanks for sharing with us. It's refreshing knowing...

Too true, and well identified. Having witnessed some of the field, and indoor testing, from the periphery, I can attest that the volume, effort, time, expense and detailed recording of the results of the testing is extensive and meticulous. Kudos to Michael and others such as Sam Rose for all...

Very nice buck Sarg, well done. Your eyes can't be too bad if you're still getting it done with open sights.

And a metric ton of field testing.

Nice Scrub bull Fordy (y)

To my knowledge, there's only one full sized .500 in Australia and that's in my grubby little hands. .450gn brass CEB #13 @ a mild 2450fps.

Thumping Red Skins Sarg. They're tough animals. When we removed the head off this one we found a spinal bone lodged in its throat. The throat was mostly blocked and the bone had been there for some time. I have no idea how it survived with that bone lodged in there.

Sorry, my bad. You know, you shot so many animals you can't blame me for gettin confused.

:E Lol::E Rofl: Let me know if you can't find them and I'll send them over.

I'm pretty sure I've got some pics of that here at home. Surprised you haven't got any. I could send-em to you, maybe send you the ones with me sitting behind it o_O

Very interesting observations Sarg. No, I wasn't all that far from you guys at Gan Gan. Prolly only 300k's, maybe less. Wasn't uncommon for me to go an entire season and not see a Wallaby. They became more common after a few years of me doing regular seasonal burns. Plenty of Red skins and Buff...

Hey Grumpy, I'm no expert on Dingos/wild dogs. They look like Dingos to me ? Whatever they are there's just too many of them. Way out of balance. Them and the Whistling/Brown/Fork-tailed kites, it's a wonder anything small, bird or mamal survives.

Hey Fordy. No, I never introduced Michael to our Roos. We hunted in Eastern Arnhemland where there were only very few Wallaby. The Dingo's are protected and take on heck of a toll on the Wallaby population and so it was an "event" to actually ever see one. I would go a full season some years...
