40-year-AZ-hunter

I know this is not the normal current thinking, but I am old enough to remember when Hodgdon started out in business by buying surplus WWII military powder like 4895 and 4831 and selling it in bulk. heck, I still have and use some WWII surplus 4831 that works the same way it did when I first bought it 50 years ago from Jensen's in Tucson. I don't load near as much anymore, but I still have some quite old metal cans of IMR powders like 4064, 4320, 4350 etc. that were first used a decade or more ago and closed with the metal cap screwed back on tight and it still works just fine. Just to let you get an idea of how old some of this powder is, the surplus 4831 was about 50 cents per pound. Some of the old IMR cans still have price tags of $2-$3 on them.

All the factory barrels have a slot for the rear sight, not holes like Remington. Also the barrels are slotted at the receiver for the extractor on a controlled round feed action like the pre-64s. Then there is the "writing" on the barrel that needs to be in the correct position on the left side. Hence the question about how likely is headspace to be correct by just screwing the barrel in to the original factory rotation when it is going into a different action than it came from the factory in. Thanks.

Geez, give him a break and let him make a bit.

Sent you a PM. Nice offer. Where are you located?

I have two boxes of Hornady 160g FTX LEVERevoution 30-30 ammunition that I won't be shooting. $60 FTF near Shea and the 51 in Phoenix. I think that's about the store price so if you don't need it soon, just wait until they have it. Perhaps somebody has a hunt coming up and needs it. Thanks guys.

I've never tried it, but .218 Bee is also the same case. It might be easier to run a .257 expander ball thru the .224 neck rather than reducing .32 to .25?????

Get out the Vasoline....

Shelves mostly bare now. No 9mm. Guy said it all went in the first hour.

Did you notice the 9mm prices? It's way across town for me.

I always wanted a .257 Wby Mag. Bought this new from Sportsmans almost 10 years ago and before I ever shot it, my buddy passed away and left me his custom .257 Wby. I think it's been out of the box once to look at it. I'm in N. Phx. Sorry, but the price is firm. Must be at least 21, AZ resident and not a prohibited possessor. We can exchange receipt and bill of sale.

Sold pending funds. Thanks guys.

SOLD

Remington 700 30-06 from Dec 1962. 20" barrel. I've owned for decades and not shot it for over 30 years. Very low round count. Never sent to Remington for trigger issues. Original except for wood cutout for receiver sight. No rear open sight. Has Weaver bases. Located in N. Phx. Sale FTF to AZ resident with bill of sale and receipt exchanged.

Have you tried Leica? Years ago I called needing a cover (cant remember if it was objective lens or eyepiece) for a Televid 77 that I bought used at Outdoorsmans and they sent me one gratis. They are generally pretty good. I have many Leica products. They are currently repairing a set of binos under the Passport warranty even tho I am not the original owner (which is what the written warranty specifies).

Wow, I'm old, have had AZ driver's license for MANY YEARS without SS#. IF your AZ license has SS# you should get a new license.

Reasonable, in fact prudent for seller and buyer to see each other's IDs to verify that both are residents of AZ if the private sale is in AZ and is to be legal.

He said he bought it here and HE never fired it. He did not say it had never been fired.

You might want to make it clearer that you are only looking for Federal at this time. The posting sounds like you would prefer that but want generic 150 gr.

Dang, is even .270 getting hard to find? Anyway I have 18 Winchester 150 Power Point and 11 Remington 150 CoreLokt, but I'm in Flagstaff. If you reload, I also have Winchester 150 Power Pt bullets and Speer 150 soft pts.

Just curious which underlying carrier you use. Verizon perhaps? My understanding is that the booster, as it's name implies, will "boost" a weak signal but can't create signal where none is present. I've been all over the strip and found very limited cell service with or without a booster with my carrier (not Verizon).

Thank you Josh!!! You are great. Look forward to meeting you in person for a cup of coffee or whatever!

You guys look at the pictures in the ad? It shows a bag of new .264Win Mag brass.

Sent you a PM

Well, I for one appreciate guys like Boarman who are willing to share a good deal rather than simply keeping it to themselves.
