[@CanoeingTheEdgeOfTheWorld]

Hot Damn! A new "Hunting with Stu" video! It looks drier than 10 dry things out there. Glad to have another adventure to watch!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes mate it was dry but we did also get a fall of rain while we were out there which was good.

[@charlieeames8598]

When you notice the 30/30 is literally amazing

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate yes it is a fav of mine.

Great vid and STILL NO RAIN! Damn.. dustier than 11 dusty things! Keep up the great hunts, great content and great narration for sure.

"Jon Voight", that shot when you passed, was great!

my black eagle mama is back ….she is cruisen for nest sights....saw her in the trail camera. we have a local computer in the shed. welcome home mama! her babies get big fast on baby pigs. she doesn't have to do much work to feed them.... she is almost three feet tall. and has a 18 foot wing span. when we go back to critter hunt it should prove interesting! last summer they got so bloody eating babies they had to go to the lake to wash. damn blood glues the feathers together. always fun watching you piggen stu!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Another missed comment, sorry mate. Thanks for watching.

[@crazy-john]

Welcome back Stu and Steve haven't seen you guys for a while and thanks for sharing the video guys. It looks so so dry out there in West of NSW.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate yes it is dry alright mate.

[@crazy-john]

Yeah I was out there a few weeks ago and its bone dry. They are getting very cunning and coming so close to the homesteads.

[@crazy-john]

Great news mate and can't wait to see the new video 👍👍

[@AngryMackAdventures]

hey mate "conoeing the edge of the world" brought me here, good some great stuff!

[@lachlanyounie9238]

Great video stu, I was out towards western nsw, out past dubbo by 4 or so hours about a month back. I invested in a quad and I built a proper cage and shooting racks around 360 degrees. I used it last trip and ended up with 67 pigs in 5 days. But the drought is really hitting hard. Very sad.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Wow good hunt mate! yes it is dry alright.

[@87xfute]

Hey Stu don't take this personally, but as a retired mechanic you make a bloody brilliant shot, just stick with that haha and leave the mechanicing to someone else mate. Thanks again for the vid mate brings back a lot of great memories only we didn't have quads it was all foot slogging. I cut my teeth in the Pilliga scrub from the mid 70's to the late 90's ahh they were the good ole days mate. Seeya Rob......how can I send you a private email, if you'd rather not that's all good mate I understand, just a thought.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Lol yes mate I will leave the motor stuff to the mechanics ha. Do you have Face book?

[@87xfute]

No sorry mate I don't do social media at all, sorry !! Just email.

[@bogfish9664]

AT LAAAAAAST! a new upload. Made my friday night. Thanks Stu!

Good stuff mate pleased to be of assistance.

[@kenporter5022]

The way you guys speed through that terrain is absolutely insane! No eye protection is a recipe for disaster! But have fun!

[@HuntingwithStu]

yes mate we do need eye protection.

[@crazy-john]

G'day Stu thanks for sharing the video mate that looks bone dry out there we need rain badly. Question mate is the Adler getting jammed in 14.47? And not loading proper!!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate sometimes I don't work the lever hard enough.

[@crazy-john]

All good mate hopefully we'll see couple more videos of you and Steve before Christmas if not have a merry Xmas and a happy New Year be safe and watch out for the zombies when the sun goes down hahaha

About to post another clip this week. You have a good Chrissy too mate.

[@matthewberry1738]

Love the bush mechanic banter mate! Funny as hell

[@HuntingwithStu]

Ha ha thanks mate.

[@Rufusthered186]

The correct term is a "Thinging Kabob". Which attaches to "Whosy what's'it". Which makes the whole "Thinhing Ma'gig" work. Thank Christ you know how your bang bang works. Happy hunting.

[@HuntingwithStu]

LOL correct mate

Hey man could you do a review on the Adler, I’m thinking off getting one. Cheers

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thinking of doing an equipment clip that includes the firearms mate.

[@shanevonharten3100]

Always good to see Stu bustin a few grunters. Dry as an arabs handle out west, remember those gum sapplings being green in previous videos. Still got the eye in though and that quad doesn't seem to have got any better. No zombies this trip.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes mate dry as 10 dry things, however, it did rain while we were out there which was good to see. No zombies thankfully mate.

[@carbonseals]

😄 been a long time between drinks Stu... good see your still chasing the action! We're going west next week, wish us luck 👍

I do have a clip called explaining running shots mate, check it out.

[@reptilianxlol934]

Stu back at it again with his marksmanship

[@greatdividehunting7887]

Another cracking vid mate !! What's the model of Sony camera u use and what was your reasoning again as to why u prefer over a GoPro ?

[@HuntingwithStu]

Not sure of the model but it is a 4K job mate. I prefer the sony action cam as sony have been around for many years and I also like how it sits on the side of the head giving a first person shooter angle.

[@connormendez611]

What area? Keen to know, good video👍

[@matthewblandford4217]

Awesome to see another clip Stu!! Great shooting 🐷 Hopefully they got a decent bit of rain up there over the weekend

Your vids are awesome It really shows how dry it is out there and why we need you to keep doing what you do Did you learn your mechanical skills from Ray Allen during one of his famous warm ups🤔🤔 You saw a fox at the start, do you ever see rabbits? I shot a rabbit once

[@HuntingwithStu]

Lol Ray's warm ups, ha. There are hares around mate

You know I almost thought this was New Mexico or Texas then I realized you weren’t using an AR 15 or 50

[@HuntingwithStu]

Lol Australia mate.

[@thetassieboys]

might be time for an upgrade to a Hero 8 black. For the stabilisation and hopefully better bit rate especially when going through the trees at speed on the quad. Makes it a bit hard to watch sometimes.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes I noticed that as well mate.

[@thetassieboys]

Still watched it all as always haha :) loved the driveby one handed shot on the downed pig 😂

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate yes gotta keep the momentum going hey.

[@davidsmith800]

Do you have lots of biting insects? Those flies around you look like our horseflies or deerflies. In the summer here in Canada in the bush they drive you crazy.

They don't bite but are annoying as hell mate.

what is the quad you use? iv been looking into buying a quad and i wonna get one that will hold up to the shit.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes mate it is always a bit of a wild ride chasing pigs through the bush.

[@matthewmoses4222]

Another great video Stu, did you try the 130 grain soft points in your 30-06?

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate, yes I'm undecided with the 130 grainers as sometimes they hit hard and other times like a running chest shot they don't hit like a 150 grainer.

[@efeightyeight]

On the Tooheys mate! What happened to the Rum cans?

[@HuntingwithStu]

In the fridge mate just needed a beer to wash down the dust first, ha.

[@Browneye2566]

What load are you using in that 30-06 these days mate? Any further load development news?

[@HuntingwithStu]

Currently punching out 130grn soft points a couple of grains over minimum loads mate.

[@Browneye2566]

@@HuntingwithStu I'm currently trying the Sierra 135gn HP (#2124). So far so good, but still experiencing with the load. It's the same projectile OSA use in their 308 factory ammo. It's quite a tough bullet that holds together a bit better.

I've been watching all your videos and learning what you do, I was in Ivanhoe NSW on the weekend and finally got my first few pigs!! It took me a while to figure out what to do but after a lot of walking and stalking we shot some nice fat pigs🐗💥, the rain stuffed us up a bit but it's good for the farmers so it was a great weekend! I'm absolutely addicted to hunting now👍

[@HuntingwithStu]

Good to hear mate yes hunting gets in your blood and will never be far from your mind mate. Welcome to the fold.

[@ralstonraz]

Hey Stu - at what range dis you zero your 30 06? And at at what ranges can you shoot it point blank with this setting?

[@HuntingwithStu]

I zero at 30m so it is on again at 200m. I can shoot pigs one barrel length away and out to 300m pretty easily mate.

[@tylerpogue6037]

Sure looks dry Stu. Another great video!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes it is dry

[@jacobotes8443]

What rifles you use? Love the aussie way of saying things. Cheers from ZA

[@HuntingwithStu]

I use a bolt action M77 MK II in 30/06; a lever action 30/30 winchester; and a lever action 110 Adler shotty mate.

[@garyhaslam5735]

always worth watching .great shooting stu ..thanks for posting .more please .

[@HuntingwithStu]

Pleased you liked it mate

[@bensharpe3762]

Any reason you prefer the 3006 to a 308? Have you noticed any significant advantage or is it simply personal preference

[@EnkeiTenjin]

I prefer 30-06 to 308 for hunting purely for ease of use. Big case, long action, and usually cheaper to buy and reload ammo. Heaps handy to put rounds into the gun as everything is bigger. Ammo cost is pretty awesome too, I feel 30-06 is ever so slightly more forgiving than 308. If you don't quite hit your shot exactly where you wanted it, the sheer power will kill the animal almost regardless. That's my experience with pigs anyway.

[@HuntingwithStu]

As Swipez states below mate. I just like how it sorts out the biggest pigs. I reckon that the 308 is on par with the 30/06 and in fact the 308 is more popular than the 30/06 but I don't know exactly why but I have never warmed to the 308, probs cause everyone has one, not sure. But the 308 is a mighty caliber mate.

Do you mean the 202 Sauer? this is a type of rifle not a caliber. However, anything from 223 and up are all good on pigs. Steve, my huntin buddy says that a minimum of 150grn projectile is needed and I reckon he is also on the money.
