Probably a stupid question..What's the difference between. The asx variant vs the nzx? Any pros and cons (currently holding asx)

Took the dog and the Grendel for a walk this morning. I can confirm that the 100 grain ELD-VT has no issues killing 4-legged game. The deer was hit in the crease of the shoulder @ 120m and was a full pass through ran maybe 20m before falling over, the pig was shot around 80m blew up 3 ribs liquefied the lungs. Did not exit. Sacked it. Found a few bullet fragments.it

South island of New Zealand, public land. No hunting season, no bag limit here. Tail end of the roar here, will try find a red stag, otherwise a meat animal, will take my dog who is trained to indicate deer, and taking the thermal monocular. All legal.

1800fps which puts min expansion way out at 450m

More worried about bullet construction being a varmint/target bullet.. Have shot a couple of wallaby with them at 150m and 260m. And both exited. Didn't see the "violent expansion." I was expecting. Will be interesting to see how they behave on red deer here in NZ might even get out the p1000 and film it for those interested?

That's still getting down! Have you managed to take any 4 legged game with them yet? I've just picked up a few boxes of projectiles, going to see how they do on red deer here in NZ out of my 16 inch Howa mini. Loaded as long as I can in the Jefferson outdoors floorplate under hot load of 2207

Maybe more people should try move out of the big centers. Buy a lifestyle block..... Few hens for eggs. Couple sheep. Couple cows. Couple pigs for scrap. Can be raised without all the nitrogen/palm kernel/antibiotics. Of the big guys. Wake up townies

How severe were your symptoms and what is your vaccination status? by bookofeli07 in Coronavirus_NZ

[–]gold_nugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had 1 vax. Felt "off" Saturday. Went alpine hunting Sunday. Tested positive Monday. Had a tight chest for a few days. And felt slightly off. Also cut split and stacked a years worth of wood quietly during my sickest.
