Lightweight Hunting: clothing

The final part in the series: part three – I discus the clothing I took out with me on my lightweight hunting trip.

Essentially, I was utilising Icebreaker Base Layers with Hunters Element on top.

I was trying out HE’s new Crucial Top – and was very pleased with the amount it breathed. Certainly – there was points where I would have had to take off other tops or jackets to vent heat – the the Icebreaker shirt, Prime Top and Crucial Top just seemed to be bang on when it came to the staying warm while stationary and not overheating while on the move. Very, very impressed with it.

I am thinking that in warmer times I might simply leave the merino shirt in the pack and that should be just right temp wise.

Overall, very pleased with the system – just need to remember to take my belt next time!

In close, should I aim high or low?

Ballistics 0
I hear the comment quite regularly - 'I got in real close to the animal - but just couldn't seem to get the bullets to go where I was aiming - I was so close, I must have had to aim lower, right?' Well, no. If you aimed lower, there is a good chance you put a round under the animal - or worse still - into a leg. But why? Oh. Maths!

T-Bone Steaks

I have fallen for T-Bones recently. What isn't to like about them? They are great value for money, full of taste, and have a bonus feature - the Missus will generally not be able to finish all of hers so I get to eat one and a half T-bone steaks.

Bore Brushes - like many subjects in the shooting community (for example, cleaning itself), there are many differing opinions, all seemingly with their own set of proof and reasonings.
