  1. Element Nexus 5-20x50

    Resurrecting this thread to ask if anyone has used on of these for stalking, particularly interested in low light performance Thanks.
  2. GoreTex or waxed jacket for stalking?

    I use an Austrian army jacket for stalking and walking the dogs, I have the long back version. Very comfy, completely waterproof, warm and big pockets. Would highly recommend, best jacket I have owned.
  3. New .22 Hornet

    I have a cz 527 in 22 hornet that I may part with, it's done less than 250 rounds and is very accurate but just doesn't get used.
  4. He’s only gone and done it

    Congratulations, good shooting and hope it's the first of many for you.
  5. Lightweight stalking rifle

    My dad's 308 is a 16 inch barrel and that's shoots unbelievably accurately. I would happily have one with a barrel this short.
  6. Guntrader Website Update

    The site hasn't been working at all for me for days, has anyone else been experiencing this problem?
  7. Quick load help please.

    Thanks for the help guys, really appreciate it. Dave.
  8. Quick load help please.

    Hi all, Would someone with quickload be kind enough to run a load through for me please? I have looked at both vhit and nosler load data and the charges are similar but the velocity data is quite different. I would like to know what I can roughly expect as my barrel is shorter than the test...
  9. Yew tree 114 tipped 6.5 cal

    Hi, not wanting to hijack the thread but is there a 30 cal tipped in the pipeline at all? These look like great bullets but my 243 doesn't have a fast enough twist so only leaves 308 for me. Thanks
  10. Scope advice

    Hi Mac, I would suggest the delta titanium 2.5-15x56 would do everything you want. I will be very clear in the lamp, it's night vision compatible and as an added bonus it's very competent at low light and makes a brilliant stalking scope too. As you are putting it on a 243 this one scope could...
  11. Blaser, Shultz & Larsen, Beretta, Sako or ???

    My choice would be a sauer without question.
  12. Older Rifle Help

    Of the rifles you have listed there I would go for a sako 75 personally, had one in the past and they are great rifles, shouldn't be a problem to rebarrel if it was even needed.
  13. Which 2 calibres?

    It would depend on what's available ammo wise near you or if you homeload. If factory ammo I would probably go for, 17hmr or 17 hornet if available, the hornet would be my preference. This covers rabbits and closer foxes. 308 would be my choice for everything else if factory ammo is the option...
  14. Delta titanium BT?

    Hi, Yes I did get one and I like it a lot, almost the same as the swarovski system but without a zero stop. It's proved to track and return to zero without any problems. The only thing I would say is it moves fairly easily if knocked but I just keep an eye on it, this has never caused me a...
  15. Delta scopes

    I have the 2.5-15x56 titanium HD and its brilliant, very good in low light, I have put the ballistic turret on and that tracks perfectly and returns to zero, picture is clear nothing not to like for me, great bit of kit.
