I not fussed about my neighbors, I shoot the 300 wsm and the shotgun in the yard havn,t let the 375 h+h off yet but i will

 

[scooba_285]

[tweak'e]

funny you mention that, i just dragged the decoys out of the shed !

 

[Goata]

Gunna start off around the farm then see how we go from there

 

[scooba_285]

what are you doing with a 375? lol that's an elephant rifle (well the smallest legal one in Africa anyway)

 

[d22dave]

The neighbours are a couple hundred meters away, The wifes cousin livescloser but he dont count dole bludgers who live in sheds dont have any rights

Wanted a big calibre, would really like to go to the NT chasing buff, few blokes use them on sambar as well, It was a 375 or 458 and 375 came up so i grabbed it

 

[scooba_285]

whats it like with recoil? kick the shit outta ya?

 

[d22dave]

Recoil is good, More of a push like a shotgun

 

[scooba_285]

really? i thought it would be a knock u on ur ass kinda recoil, my 270 win is pretty hard on me but im pretty skinny lol

 

[d22dave]

If you get the chance to have a shot out of a 375 or 458 its surprising the way they push compared to smaller calibers like 270 308 and 30-06 which can be savage to some

Seriously, you guys shoot ducks? I get shooting ferals (cats, goats, hare, horse etc etc), but ducks I don't get - just don't seem worth the effort.

Who here can tell the difference between a Pacific Black and Pink Ear at 100m? I'm hoping you all can!
