Just like @p_ham, I was able to take my son on his first big game hunt this weekend. I drew this limited entry tag in Utah with 0 points, so I did not have any sort of expectation on size of an animal. All I wanted was my son to have a positive experience and to learn and have fun.
We arrived...
These are super clean, only used hunting for about a week per year (hunting out of a ranger, so hardly any wear on them). 2013 model (Gen 1), just got new lens caps and battery cover from Swaro. Happy to take more pictures upon request, but I tried to show all the minor wear on them. No...
Brand new VX6HD. I had planned to put this on a rifle that never materialized. Still in the shrink wrap, never been opened. Has the illuminated TMOA reticle. Looking to get $1650 shipped TYD.
Here is a lightly used Vortex Gen II PST optic that I had on a range rifle (it saw 25 rounds total). Does not show any use/scratches at all. The scope is 3-15 and FFP in MOA. Fantastic scope for the price with zero stop. Comes with Vortex Pro rings and the has a cheap MK machining throw lever...
Here are a bunch of things I found I do not need while cleaning up the garage this past week.
Vortex Pro GT Tripod + adapter good condition but used. SOLD
Eberlestock H2 Gunrunner great condition. Used hiking 2x- $100
Badlands 2200 good condition. Used on 1 successful elk hunt. $200
1" Low...
I bought a 6.5 Creedmoor a few days ago and dropped it into another stock I had laying around. This stock has a chassis built in, adjustable cheek riser, and the bottom metal. Just drop in your short action Remington 700 or clone receiver, and you’re ready to go! Buying the stock + bottom metal...
I know that everyone has their opinions but I wanted to share mine. I typically am an Accubond or Hammer type of guy but the 250 Berger Elite Hunter shot so well in my 338 SS. I took a deer earlier this week and was extremely surprised I found the bullet in this condition. Entry was just behind...
Looking for opinions on which bullet I should shoot out of my Christensen Mesa this year. Not looking for a long range / high BC bullet as shots are within “normal” hunting distances. Feel free to comment on additional bullets. I’m looking for a strong and good penetrating bullet.
Does anyone here know of a source for a bolt stop for a Rem 700 SA? I picked up an action without one and haven't been able to source one in months. Any help would be appreciated!
Looking for a rifle for a hunt you just drew out on? Here is a lightly used, Browning X-Bolt 300 Win Mag. I have taken this on two hunts and put about 100 rounds through it is all. I have made a few upgrades such as the adjustable cheek rest, Timney trigger, and a 20 moa base. This is a great...
Its partially a caliber thread, but I would enjoy a cartridge suggestion as well. Okay I will admit it, I have a problem. A good problem though, I think! For my hunting rifles, I have a 6.5 Needmoor, 6.5 PRC, 300 Win Mag, and 338 SS. I am a tinkerer and always need a project. What caliber should...
About 4 months ago I set out on a fun project. I decided I wanted to try out a wildcat cartridge, learn how to put together a bolt gun (remage barrel, headspace, etc) and work up a load that was under 1 MOA. Today, I finally put the mammoth together. Altogether it weighs a touch over 11 pounds...
Hey all, just starting to plan for my next year hunts. I little early I know, but I have been a little antsy/excited and wanted to get some opinions on what I should do. I have 2 points in both WY and MT (UT resident here). I am doing an OTC Any Bull Elk here in Utah, North Slope Uintas, this...
