1 pointHappy to help. If there is anyone out there that needs 300 saum brass I found some at a pawn shop in my home town. They have about 300 pieces. It’s looks like it’s all Remington and 50 of the pieces are primed. We could work a deal between us and I could picked it for someone and shipped to you if someone is interested.

1 pointI bought this a couple years from another CWT member for my LH son. He doesn't have much interest in hunting so I'm offering it up. As the title states it is chambered in 270 Win, wood shows some wear but overall in good condition. Bluing is very good with few blemishes. Barrel is about 21" plus the brake. It has an adjustable trigger installed, I think Rifle Basics. Stock has standard length of pull with a limb saver pad installed. Rifle is topped with an optional Leupold VX 3 4.5-14x40mm with big game reticle, 30mm tube and sits in Leupold rings. I feel this is a perfect scope for this rifle. I reloaded for this, mainly with Barnes bullets, it averaged around 3/4, best group shown in pics. If Interested, I have some brass, bullets and RCBS dies that will also be sold. Rifle w/o rings/scope With rings and scope Location, South Chandler

1 pointElk draw deadline was Feb. 8th last year. CC hits on March 2nd. 3 weeks and 1 day after draw deadline. Deer draw went smoother. Deadline was June 14th and they hit CC's on the 28th. They will put out an announcement soon with the "Update CC deadline" date and they will hit CC's the next morning. At least that is the way it has been going. Since they haven't announced that yet, my bet would be that they hit CC's on March 7th. Just a guess though.

1 pointthe hard part is that not all merchants breakout to the fine detail of Guns/Ammo, they line out to being sporting good stores. Now some specific stores may have that G/A code. Just use cash or gift cards. hard part is out of state internet purchases.

1 pointFollowing. Islamorada is extremely high on my bucket list. I have friends going to Key West for spring break. I can ask them where they're staying if you want. I guess it also depends on where you are planning to stay.

1 pointThe 31-Day Gun Raffle winners should be posted on the AZ State NWTF Website and I think we posted it on our chapter's FB page. With all the snow we've been getting, I honestly lost track of posting winners. I can certainly get the whole list of winners for the 31-Day gun raffle, though. You'd know if you got the draw. Our RD would have called you. He runs that raffle and does all of the drawings for that one, in particular.

1 pointSome of those servers are pretty good. When they ask are you "Mr. Somebody" you say get the fck off my property. It doesn't go well sometimes with people from your children's school, girlscouts,and a few others. Oh well it works though😀

1 pointOne of the main reasons I want to go back to AK is for the freshewater fishing. I had a 35-lb class king salmon on and it broke the line at the boat after bouncing out of the net. It was too far in the spawn to keep, so it would have been catch/release. That was up on the Susitna River out of Talkeetna. Of course, my wife lander her 25-lb class king (also too far in the spawn to keep) and never lets me forget. I need to go back and get my king, but want to also go after dolly varden, char, and those fat rainbows on mouse pattern with my fly rod. I'm almost more interested in those than going after salmon again! I've looked a few places up in hopes of a return, so holler at me if you want me to dig them back up for you to look at. If you don't still have my cell, let me know. Pretty sure I still have yours!

1 pointI’d look for a used Burris veracity or XTR2. You can get them decently cheap and they’re much better quality.

1 pointI haven’t shared a story in a while, been trying to find the time to write this one up and finally taking the time today. I didn’t draw a tag this year but my 2 youngest boys did. My 16 year old, Rusten found a spot he wanted to hunt and made a couple trips in there and scouted it pretty well. He found where we could get water and got a good lay of the the land but never found any big bucks. The first few days of the hunt we decided to go to an area we were already familiar with. After a pretty brutal hike we set up a quick camp and started glassing. We quickly found a cool 2x3 buck bedded at 600 yards but while we were trying to decide if one of the boys wanted to shoot him, he got up and disappeared into the brush. By then it was mid-day so we decided to drop into the canyon and filter some water to get us through the next couple days. After filling up we made our way back to our glassing point. At around 2pm, Rusten glassed up two bucks bedded at 800 yards. We took a good look at them and thought the bigger one might be close to 100”. My 14 year old Camm, decided he wanted to shoot the bigger of the two bucks so we made a plan. Rusten stayed on the hill while Camm and I moved closer. While we were getting into position the bucks got up and started feeding. We got to 415 yards and found a big boulder to get into a semi-prone position. He was able to make a great shot and put down his 3rd coues deer and his biggest buck yet at around 97”. By the time we got him broke down and back to camp it was 830 and we were pretty exhausted. We got Camm’s meat cooled off and hanging in the shade and we were back at it the next morning looking for a buck for Rusten. He had his sights set pretty high on an only shooting a big buck. He has been lucky enough to kill two bucks around the 100” mark already. One of them was on the same hill that camm just killed his buck on so we were hopeful of finding another good buck. Unfortunately, the next 2 days the wind picked up big time and we only turned up some small bucks and a bear. We decided to pack Camm’s deer out and move camp to the area Rusten scouted After a few hours at home we were back at it the next morning in a new area with high hopes Monday we found around 10 bucks, nothing big, but that evening we saw a couple that were too far out that looked promising. Tuesday morning we glassed close to camp at first light but by mid-day we were over were we saw the bucks the previous evening. We were on top of a the biggest hill in the area looking down into some shaded cuts. At around 2pm, I found a buck up feeding about 600 yards below us. As I was trying to point him out to the boys, he disappeared behind some trees. We were waiting for him to come out and another buck appears that was noticeably bigger. I wasn’t sure how big but I could see he had long beams and decent point length. Rusten decided pretty quickly he wanted to shoot him. Normally, I would help my boys find a place to shoot from and get the rifle set up for them but this time I just told Rusten to make it happen. We weren’t able to get any closer because of a big bluff below us so I gave him the dope for 613 yards and he knocked him down. I was pretty surprised when I walked up to him to see that he was a better buck than I thought. This is Rusten’s 5th coues deer and also his best at close 106” We were beyond blessed on this hunt. My boys impress me so much with their willingness to put in the hard work chasing these deer in the backcountry. We had a lot of laughs especially trying to stuff the 3 of us into a 2 man backpacking tent. Good memories for sure.
