There’s a deep dive into the Lythgow Arms factory tour, Remembrance Day shooting on-site, and a proper rundown of the FoxTastic weekend and why it exists.

In Episode 22 of the Bullet Points Podcast, the boys are finally back in the studio and comparing two very different adventures. Maxwell takes us through his “not-a-hunting-moon” across New Zealand’s South Island—catching trout, exploring Milford Sound in the middle of insane rainfall, discovering natural hot springs, battling sandflies and smashing laps at Highlands Motorsport Park in a Radical race car. Meanwhile, Rusty breaks down his week in China with HikMicro: touring the massive Hikvision campuses, seeing how outdoor thermals fit into the bigger picture, navigating hotpot culture, dealing with robot room-service deliveries, witnessing China’s rural countryside from a very slow high-speed train, and stumbling into a secretive counterfeit market straight out of a movie. If you’re into travel stories, gear talk, food adventures, motorsport, or just hearing two mates unpack wildly different trips, this episode is a good time.
Mason from Red Earth Distribution joins the podcast to talk about growing up in a hunting family, the early days that shaped his love for the outdoors, and how that eventually led him into the shooting industry.

Along the way we get plenty of laughs, from snapping skateboards in half to freezing T-shirts in 50-degree heat, and the running joke that “confidence fixes everything.”We also dive into the business side: what Red Earth Distribution is building, why brands like GPO (German Precision Optics) are gaining traction in Australia, and how the industry is evolving behind the scenes.
