Under Down Under Ablaze

Just wanted to take a moment to pass on my condolences to any members, and their friends/family who have lost property or stock from the recent fires (of which, some are still out of control) in Tasmania. Also in Victoria. I've heard the fire in the Gippsland area is contained, but hope you're all s...

Fox Spotlighting

I've been out of action since just before new years - knee arthroscope x 2 (both knees). The surgeon did an unreal job and the initial recovery (getting off pain killers) was very swift, but I'm now walking :lol: the fine line between too little rest, and too much movement. So I'm taking this opport...

Re: cooper rifles?

Redfox - I'm out catching some at the moment. Will be home a few days before Xmas. I'm on my phone ATM but when I get home I'll post a pic here that I think you'll enjoy.

I'm still waiting for the transport guys to get their depots in line with the stupid worksafe rules.
Been months since we got any powder deliveries at the LGS

Re: gotta luv the 204 and my new nightforce

Nice work Bazz. I've dropped about a dozen pups in the last 2 outings. Won't be able to post picks for a while though - hit download limit at home, so using phone for now, and about to head to sea again.
But for now I guess it didn't happen - no pics ha ha

Re: Ruger 77/17 Hornet

I agree with Bazz. I'm not looking. I haven't looked at every picture and drooled :lol: And I definitely won't drool over the next pic. Probably best that gun comes over here for one of us Aussies to look after while rehab takes it's course. That way, even if the patient escapes, there is little cha...

Re: gotta luv the 204 and my new nightforce

That shows how good the 204 is, but also how good your skills are. Not often you can get every fox you see, then one more! Good shooting mate. The lambs will be very happy. I got back from sea on Friday. Due to leave again Saturday week. Farmers around me are just starting on their wheat, so hope to...

Re: few more from downunder

Just as long as thay dont have a bell around there neck or smell like shampoo I believe there's a curfew on cats. After sundown - fair game? I'd hate to take someone's best mate from them. They are great companions, but irresponsible owners need to understand how much damage one cat can do. They ma...

Re: few more from downunder

Good stuff Chrisso. I bought my 204 specifically for cats. Foxes too, but I hate feral cats with a passion. Unfortunately I haven't bagged a kitty yet. Lots of red dogs, but still itching to get a cat. No doubt that itch only gets worse once you knock down a big ginger?
Congrats mate
