Review: Nosler Lead Free BT Varmint
Lead free projectiles have been around for some time now and with the increasing push by the anti’s, we’re seeing areas in the United States being declared lead free zones which has limited the choice of projectiles that hunters can use. Fortunately, manufacturers were quick to respond by increasing the range of lead free [...]
Book Review: Weatherby. The Man. The Gun. The Legend!
I’ve always been a Weatherby fan and at the moment my favourite factory rifle would have to be the Vanguard. I love the 24 inch barrels that come as standard on the sporters and the actions are as good as any other in that price range. I’ve also owned a few Mark V’s and they [...]
Reviewing a Steyr Mannlicher Schoenauer
Recently a friend asked me if I could take a look at his hunting rifle. It had developed the dreaded problem of a shifting zero. I instantly thought of loose mounts or a faulty scope and told him to bring it over when he had a chance. On its arrival I got the pleasant [...]
Reviving a Martini Cadet in 218Bee
Like many shooters out there, I started off my shooting career with a humble single shot. It was a Martini Cadet chambered in an improved version of the 218Bee. Before going on any further, it’s worth mentioning the interesting history of this particular rifle. Many years ago, my father in law had the late [...]
Leupold RCX Trail Camera System (Advertisement)
The new Leupold RCX Trail Camera System is the most user-friendly, plug and play trail camera system ever developed.

First Look At The Ruger GSR [Gunsite Scout Rifle]
I was sent a Ruger GSR which I had been eagerly awaiting for since its announcement earlier this year. To me it seemed like a great rifle for Aussie hunters and I think it will be. Seeing as I can’t go out and fire it straight away I thought it would be best to do [...]
The Savage 10FCP Rifle Review
When Savage’s 10FCP was sent to me for review I was really looking forward to putting it through its paces. Savage rifles have come leaps and bounds since I first started shooting, whilst they have always been known as reliable and accurate shooters, the Savage centrefire rifles these days come with some great improvements over [...]
The Bushnell TRS-25 Ultra Compact Red Dot Scope Review.
The Bushnell TRS-25 1x25mm red dot scope is of compact design and a solid piece of equipment especially when you need to acquire your target fast and at close range. It is designed for a Weaver/Picatinny rail though you can get an adaptor for the standard 3/8” dovetail. The TRS-25 can be put on almost [...]
CZ 527 Varmint Laminate .223 Rem Review

The CZ 527 Varmint Laminate features a beautiful pepper [...]
Leupold VX-1 3-9x40mm Review
The Leupold VX-1 3-9x40mm is undoubtedly one of Leupold’s most popular scopes. Yet I haven’t seen a review on one for a long time. So considering I have had a couple VX-1’s in my time I thought we should take a closer look at what many people’s first model of Leupold scope will be. Things [...]
