Hey Allan,Welcome to Aushunt! Better that you post questions in the forums somewhere rather than in the G'day section - you won't always get a reply here. In general though, a 223 will be good medicine for foxes at 200m or more. Duncs

Pity it wasn't narrated in english

Gotta love watching sharp knives at work.

Welcome aboard, Leegaard! A better idea for you would be to post these questions up in the General area instead. Not too many people read the "Gday" section so will probably miss your questions.

Can't beat a report from an actual user! Good onya FS.

Don't you get all manly and wipe the knife on your prey like they do in the movies??

Here's a hint for you, you crazy Pom: try putting the stupid things back in their sheaths instead of the dirt or in trees!

http://www.solarforceflashlight-sales.com Worth a look. I haven't been on there for a while but their stuff is great!

Check out solarforcesales fellas. But don't blame me if you keep going back for more

Not as warm as polypropylene but handles getting wet much better. So a trade off.

Clever!

We've got ones with a fast/slow button which helps but you still get the same problem you've described, Dutchy. It'd be exaggerated if you were trying to track something moving too.

Burke & Wills make a good swag. Darche always get a good rap too.

Looks like a sturdy, comfortable unit, Paul.

Congrats Sleek!! Always an exciting moment for anyone! Good choice for a first mate.

I bought one of these and used it on the last few hunts - works great. The Kuiu one looks good too but I haven't seen one in the flesh.

The other thing I forgot to mention is that I bought it for the length. It's the first bag I've owned where I can sleep in it at full stretch and not hit each end. The warmth factor was a bonus!

How do they go for different sized binos? Mine are bigger than the ones in the pics.

I like the look of those! I've got the standard bino harness that's popular these days. It works well to keep them from swinging but looking through them is a struggle with the elastics. So these look alright!

Svord (NZ) and Dewey are well made. A drop point skinner would be a good all-around knife if you had to have only one. The Havalon's are also a great all-purpose butchering knife if you had to only carry one. Not really a survival knife (too fragile) but if you just wanted one hunting knife it'd be a good choice. I reckon most hunters would carry two knives and then some have a more extensive butchering set back at camp.

You need to acclimatise Shawn. Shorts for you this year. Or short skirts if you prefer?

Recon all the way. Can't remember which model mine is (either a 3 or a 4) but bloody hell its good! "Sweating at night in the Gatta" good!! http://www.kitbag.com.au/products/RECON-3-Gen-II-Lightweight-Military-Sleeping-Bag-%252d5c-.html

Ok fair enough. I guess the problem remains with the wearer then

I'm not so worried about the electrickery - that stuff only comes out at quiet times. I'm thinking more about the backpack. It could be a great big UV danger beacon to deer even though it's in camo already.
