I've had a few people PM me about gun laws down here in Australia, they wanted me to clear up the myth that guns are banned but we can still hunt. So i thought i would post my response here for those who are interested. Pretty much we have 5 different licences, class A, B ,C ,D and H. Class A...

Just wondering what everybody thinks are the top 3 1000 yard competition calibers. Also, out of the 3, which one costs the least to purchase ammo for and how long do barrels last for each of the calibers.

Just wondering if anyone owns or has fired one? They are $10200 Australian down here for a standard caliber, but i found a second hand one for $5950 Australian. Not that i would get it. What makes it shoot better then a well customised bench rest rifle? Heres a link to the rifle...

I've been looking on a great used gun site for a while now and have seen alot of Mauser 98K's from different parts of the world (mostly Turkey), they go for between $200 - $500 Australian each. I was looking the other day and found a complete origional made by Mauser Obendorf with scope...

If you got a Remington 700 MLR in .338 Lapua, could you still put an Accuracy International Chassis System stock on it? I just thought it would be a cheap .338 lapua that you could slowly customise as you get the money. I'm not getting one or anything, I just want to know if it will still work...

Does anybody know how to build some kind of catcher box that i can place paper targets infront of to shoot at with an air rifle? I just dont want pellets all through my backyard and if i had a box to catch everything i could dispose of the pellets without leaving a trace. Thanks

I made another topic about a TRG 42 in 300 Win Mag recently, it came with a Nightforce NXS 12-42x56 scope, two mags, detachable bi-pod, muzzle break and heavy duty travel/storage case, it had only fired 100 rounds and it was selling 4 for $6000AU. Alot have people have said its a good deal but...

Is it worth spending ALOT on a barely used gun IF it's a really good deal?

I was just curious if it is possable to make blanks for a .308? Do blanks simulate realistic recoil when fired? i heard somewhere that you cant just fire blanks out of any gun and that it needs to be modified, is this true? thx

Can Anyone tell me the cost of hand loads compared to buying factory ammo in the .338 Lapua Mag, Australian prices would be good but US prices will still be helpful, a box of 20 here costs about $280AU just as a reference, thx

This is just out of curiosity, If i was to purchase a custom action like a Lawton or a Barnard, would the action pretty much last the rest of my life if it was well cared for? Would it perform better then a trued Remington 700 action? What would be the price between the custom actions and the...

I was browsing sites for custom rifles built off the Remington 700 (Not interested in purchaseing...just havin a browse :) ) and i came across this website. http://www.norcalprecision.com/productstactical.html I noticed that all the parts are "Trued", can someone please explain what this means...

I have a family friend over at the moment who thinks he shot a target the size of a deer with a .22 at.............700 METERS!!!! I think thats about 750 yards. He also thinks its easy done, any thoughts? It will be good for a laugh to show the results. :D

Hey all, I'm kinda new to shooting and am lookin to get my first rifle soon, i was told to spend as much on a scope as i do on the rifle. I dont have all that much money but my dad used to shoot and he has 3 old leupold scopes. They were purchased about 20 years ago and 2 of them cost $800AU. I...
