[QUOTE="Carbine Kid, post: 2289928, member: 59686"] Being type 2 I empathise with you and a crook back just makes it worse for weight control. I had a contact in Kakadoo N.P. and spent a bit of time with Ratsak chasing buffalo. He was employed by Ranger to cull the buffs. I learned a lot from him on how not to get stomped. We followed a big one, at a diagonal, into scrub and at about 15 yd I got a 220 Sierra RN from a 30-06 into his face just under his eye and he folded. He no sooner hit the ground than there is an almighty boom from beside me. Ratsak put a 577 nitro between his sholder's "for insurance". Had a bull catcher mate working out of Katherine and the property owner wanted "all the bloody donkeys dead". I was using an AR10 at the time and he gave us a case of 308's from the Pasture protection board. We made quite a dent in the donkey and pig population. Mostly we just walked right up to 20 yds from the donkeys and let loose. Definately not "sporting" but needed to be done. The pigs on the other hand were much more fun with mobs over 50, free amo and an AR10. What more could you want. Not a lot of camels in the area in those days so they were left alone. [/QUOTE]
