    Quote of the Day by Ernest Hemingway

    Saturday 1st of May is our duck shooting season opening day here in New Zealand. So we can re-run this... "Ducks, I love you and respect you very much. But I will kill 10 of you dead before this day ends."

    Shilen Trigger

    I agree they are great triggers. I run Shilen triggers on both my F-Class rifles (both on Nesika actions). I also run Jewel triggers on two tactical riles (both Surgeon actions). That's simply how things worked out. Though the Jewel has the advantage of being able to increase or decrease trigger...

    400yd English Fox!!!

    Hi Ray, Very nice pictures indeed. What wonderful rolling countryside. Up until recently I varmint hunted here in New Zealand with a 6BR with 87 grain V-max's doing about 3000fps. Have now replaced the 6BR with a 20BR (same windage but half the elevation etc). My longest hit with the 6BR...

    stock for nesika

    I also have a similar action Nesika M (not the MT) in 1.47 dia, and HS Precision bottom metal to suit. This will at some point be come a 338 Lapua Mag (or something based on this case). I was intending to have a McMillan A5 build. I understand they have the cut-out milling dimensions...

    2x New Zealand Hunting DVD up for grabs

    Have found a picture of the full 'Green 6.5mm/08Ack Imp Rifle' I postered on this earlier. In this shot it is set up for range use (HCS supressor). In the field it simply has one of Shawn Carlocks 4 port muzzle brakes.

    How many of you lap your scope rings?

    I lap all of my rifles. All have Nightforce scopes, Nightforce or IOR rings, and full lenght (Picatinny or similar) mounting rails. I figure after spending so much money on the action, scope rings, and scope you want to apply a similar amount of accuracy and fit between the scope and the rest of...

    2x New Zealand Hunting DVD up for grabs

    Hi Steve, I agree with Kevin it is not easy to take these sorts of photo's but any way here are my attemps. The first is my 6x47Lapua F-Class barreled & engraved here in New Zealand. This in a colour more suitable to good old New Zealand! The second was actually imported...

    Burden Memorial LR Regional 05/23-05/25

    Hi Monte, An interesting read. I am a F-Class shooter down here in New Zealand. I am intersted to know what each of the class codes mean: i.e. HM, MA, EX, SS - are these different classes with in Palma Rifle (traditional target rifle). I'm also guessing just like here in NZ we put the F-Class...

    F class for varmint rigs

    Hi, In New Zealand and I assume elsewhere the two officially recognised classes are F-Class Open Class, and F-T/R (F-Class Target Rifle Class). However this year during the National Rifle Association of New Zealand F-Class champs held in March we added two unofficial club-level classes; F...

    Rem700 Ejector Tuning / Removal

    Hi. I have had an issue with the two Rem M700 actions I have had (in 260Rem and 6BR) in that on ejecting the fired case the ejector pushes the neck against the side of the receive hard enough to dent the mouth of the case. The problem however does not seem to be so bad if you eject the case...

    300 - 338Lapua

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has any experiance with this cartridge (30 - 338Lapua) i.e. 338Lapua necked down to 30 cal to shoot .308 projectiles in the Berger 210VLD - 240SMK range. If such a combination could achieve 3000fps with the 240SMK then it would have similar to marginally...
