Save yourself some money, for about 8 bucks from chemist warehouse you can pick up a snake bandage with compression indicators. Use sticks from the scrub to splint.

Good vid. Hey what does the slick kit on the Adler do? Assume it makes it cycle smoother? I did see an Aussie review that said the Adler was fairly clunky to cycle - does the kit help with that?

Yes it helps mate it is a series of springs that you replace the factory ones with. Ignition Custom Engineering make the kits. Tell em Stu sent ya.

[@srnunan4783]

These videos show how much it comes down to the talent of the person shooting, not the gun or the ammo or the camo. The fancy guns are like the fancy golf clubs, You can spend as much as you want but it won't help you hit the target or get the ball in the hole!! I knew a guy who was a really good shot, all his mates were always asking him to 'sight their gun in for them' 😆

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes mate it is all about practice and knowing when to shoot and when not too if you think it might wound instead of an outright kill.

[@bobvaldez1099]

Good one, Stu. I try and balance between not enough (too simple) and over the top (tacti-wanker). I do pick what fits and suits me, making sure I get value for money. I swap between centrefires Lee enfield #4 with a #5 barrel, Addeley Precision mount and Bushy 3 - 9X mildot, or a kitted out Remington 7615 with the bells and whistles and a Halo sight on QDs. The shotgun is a Boito Miura with 19" barrels (chose it for the ejectors and single trigger.) They go on the front of the quad (a new Yamaha 350 Grizzly) and I'm working on the rest of my kit as i write. With 90 acres to practice on, I'm having fun fine tuning the package, ready for when the coronahoax is over and the borders re-open. Might see you out there one day. ;-)

[@garyevans3421]

@@RickNethery I remember when I first saw a stainless steel Ruger rifle. It was the then fairly new Mk2 that I at the time hadn’t looked over. I was shocked that it looked as shiny as Excalibur! It was coupled with the “boat paddle” stock that I thought was terrible looking! I now know that the stock is very popular in Alaska, so I guess it is durable, but I thought the mirror finish would frighten off any thing worth hunting. Later, when they introduced the Hawkeye All Weather, I really liked the looks. The finish was matte and I really wanted one. They were high everywhere I looked so I tried to be tight until I scraped up the scratch and finally ordered one in 308. Man, I just couldn’t get it to group and finally sent it down the road. The funny thing was, before I got the 308 scoped, I ran into a good deal on a new one in 223 as well. After my bad experience with the first, I got cold feet about the 223 and was afraid I would have a second nearly new rifle I would have to sell used, I sold it to a friend and had to learn second hand what a tack driver it turned out to be! 😂

Is that a 20inch barrel on the adler stu? Would you havr liked to get it longer? I cant decide a straight pull or lever. Lever seems more practical on target however... I also have a croc rifle sling. Was made a few weeks back for me. Your sling inspired me to find one up the top end 👍

Croc sling is a work of art, I wonder if there's a market for those.. - "TOP DEFINITION buy once cry once Term to describe the purchasing of an expensive item, of excellent quality. Implies that the owner will, initially, have reservations or guilt for buying such an expensive item; however, the owner soon realizes they will only have to purchase the item once. Owing to its craftsmanship and durability, the item will have a long lifespan. Bob: "Dude, this iPhone case cost me $200! It's made from Italian leather and handcrafted in Eastern Europe, though..." Frank: "Ouch... Buy once cry once, amiright? by Robert McCall November 10, 2015 "

[@CanoeingTheEdgeOfTheWorld]

@@HuntingwithStu I don't know much about crocodile leather but you can purchase alligator skin leather from a number of retailers and craftsmen in the U.S.A. The American Alligator was nearly hunted to extinction until heavy restrictions were imposed during the 1950-60's and their numbers have rebounded incredibly. Many of the products made from their skin is now from farm raised gators but hunting is legal again in many states and we have no shortage of high quality rifle slings made from their hide.

[@longlowdog]

I had a Sako Finnbear in .270, accurate but a heavy brute. I chopped it in for a Sauer Mod 90 in 7x64 and my shooting a Euro piggies improved no end. If you see a Sauer on a rack somewhere at a price that's right don't pass it by as being a posh puff musket without giving it a heft.

Hunting with Stu awesome, thanks for the response Stu keep up the great videos🔥

[@andrewmoes1022]

Nice kit. Especially that Mauser-styled Ruger. I prefer magazine rifles personally, (or just an old clip-fed military Mauser!) but either way, it's just utter reliability! I wouldn't mind going hunting some day myself, but it's hard to know where to start, when nobody in your family does it.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks for the feedback mate. Where do you live, Australia?

[@andrewmoes1022]

@@HuntingwithStu QLD, 15 mins south of Brisbane. There doesn't appear to be a place nearby that lets you shoot more than one round per magazine. It's a sad place for shooters.

Love your vids mate, from NZ

[@HuntingwithStu]

Awesome, thank you!

[@johnevans6474]

I spent £1900 on Lieca binoculars, love them.

[@HuntingwithStu]

[@greatdividehunting7887]

Thanks for showing us more of your gear mate !! How do you spell the brand of that knife ?

[@HuntingwithStu]

No worries mate. Ruike is the knife.

[@beardedaussiehunter6135]

It’d be great to see that CAT Tourniquet staged ready for use. I shared the video below. Handy advice for hopefully that time that never comes

[@beardedaussiehunter6135]

Add a chest seal and an Israeli type bandage and you’ll be set

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks mate

[@jimclarke1108]

Did you bring the ipana? Stu

[@HuntingwithStu]

Ha no mate

[@Laluna2345]

I'm curious as to why you chose a lever action over a pump?

[@HuntingwithStu]

Pump action is the next level higher licensing

[@Laluna2345]

@@HuntingwithStu aaah ok thanks for the reply

[@k666BP]

Just out of curiosity...what is the shot size on the 12 gauge cartridges? Here in UK we would use anything from 30gram 4 shot up to 50gram BB for foxes depending on range

[@HuntingwithStu]

Heavier than BBs we call em SGs

[@davidwootton683]

Hi Stu, Thanks for all the interesting videos. You mentioned that you have been hunting in Africa? There is a book you might be interested in. "Death in the Long Grass" by Peter Hathaway Capstick. The guys account of using a shotgun on a Mamba, comes to mind. I looked at some videos of your opposition. "Guns for Hire" , and no more piggy problems. Everything shot on sight. Well they need to up their game, they missed quite a few that they should not have missed! But the farmer can always call up the Zombie Brigade. Cheers David.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks for the support mate. I replied to one of your recent posts and it disappeared on me. Not to worry. Yes I have also read that book he has several books on hunting in Africa.

[@davidwootton683]

@@HuntingwithStu Thanks for you kind reply Stu. I have read a few other books of his as well. But his first one was the best. I did read your reply thanks. Cold weather here at the moment. It is snowing again in the mountains. Hopefully we will have more rain this winter to end the drought. Cheers David.

Couldn’t agree more with buying decent gear. Another similar saying is ‘buy shit, buy twice’ 👍🏻

[@HuntingwithStu]

Correct mate 👍

[@michaelsergi7626]

Hey Stu where can I get a sling like that??

[@HuntingwithStu]

Google stasonsmith.com.au/

[@michaelsergi7626]

Thanks Stu, I was referring to the croc skin one, or was that a custom made from a backstrap, can’t seem to find one anywhere.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes I think it is a custom job done years ago mate

[@dickracey7468]

You've been shooting the 06 since 92 no way changing it is a good idea

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes mate it is a good rifle.

[@williamtehero8720]

Impressive mate!

[@HuntingwithStu]

Thanks a lot! Pleased you like the clip mate.

[@redtobertshateshandles]

I'm a cheap bastard but reckon you should spend extra and buy a quality scope. Just noticed the Zook in the shed. Owned 3 so far.

[@HuntingwithStu]

Yes that scope was given to me so it was even cheaper than a cheap scope. Yes the Zook 4 x 4s are good hey.

[@redtobertshateshandles]

@@HuntingwithStu currently driving a 2012 auto Jimny after my old Sierra got t boned by a red light runner. Jimny is more powerful , quieter etc, but more complicated and less rugged. Heavier too I think.

[@redtobertshateshandles]

And the Jimny has fixed rear windows, so imo, it's stuffy inside.
