Australian Hunter

Australia's favourite hunting magazine
Welcome to Australian Hunter 39. This edition’s cover photo comes from Alistair McGlashan’s story ‘Hunting tahr on top of the world’, where Alistair shares his experience in hunting the Himalayan tahr in New Zealand’s Southern Alps. Veteran hunter Warren McKay then takes us to the Northern Territory to hunt antelope, including the exotic Sahara Desert native scimitar-horned oryx.

In Practical Hunting, Jack Crawford discusses terminal ballistics and making sure you have the right calibre, cartridge and load for your intended quarry. We also have reviews on an electric knife sharpener, multi-tool, Miroku shotgun, several Tikka rifles and much more.

Readers will be especially interested in our special four-page Hot Hunter Summer Specials section in the middle of this magazine. We have more than 25 reader-only coupons from our advertisers, offering you plenty of savings on their products and services. Why not take advantage of these great savings over the summer holiday season?

Finally, remember to turn to page 98 and enter our fantastic competitions.

Until next time, happy reading and great shopping!
