    ISO Used 7mm Rem Mag Brass

    I hate to wiggle into this thread, but if anyone has 12 pieces of Norma 7 mag brass, I’ll pay you handsomely. I have lots to trade too.

    Elk archery setup

    I will be the bad guy I guess, and go against the grain. I think a heavier arrow is important. Obviously any arrow with a sharp tip can kill an elk. But after lost elk of my own, I’d say preparing for the less favorable shots/hits is important. We want everything to be perfect, but as we all know it never is. One thing I learned the hard way, is that it is very very hard to track a bull down without a blood trail. So the bigger the hole, and the more holes you have in an elk the better. Rather than rant and rave, I’ll cut to point. A good broadhead, on a heavy arrow. A good broadhead that will cut, and not break is important. A heavy arrow will help pass the broadhead through the elk. If you encounter bone, you want the arrow to keep penetrating. If you don’t encounter bone, the arrow will make two holes instead of one, because it will likely come out the other side. There is a reason people advocate for heavier arrow setups for elk. They’re big critters, with big bones, that have an extremely strong will to survive. Now I think you can go too heavy. I don’t think you need a 1000 grain arrow setup. I tend to think the 500 grain arrow setup is a good happy medium between light and fast, and heavy and slow. Just my two cents.

    WTB Howa Stock SA

    Looking for a Bell and Carlson stock, or HS Precision stock for a Howa Short Action 1500. Not too picky about color. Just looking for a quality stock for this rifle. It was my first centerfire rifle, and I killed my first big game animal with it. I’m trying to get it in good shape for my kids who will be hunting this fall. Hopefully they can kill their first deer with it this year. Thanks for looking!!

    Need Help

    Changing your bolt, will result in different headspacing. I ran a bunch of brass far too long, and the primer pockets got too loose. The loose primer pockets allowed high pressure exhaust to escape through the primer pockets. After just a few shots, it was enough to cut the bolt face. It wasn’t horrible, but enough that I had to change the bolt face. It required setting the headspace again. As far as acquiring a new bolt, you may have luck on gunbroker, or on the long range hunting forum classifieds.

    Rl16 is an excellent powder for 6.5 cm. I’ve achieved sub 1/3 moa at 1000 yards with it and the 147 eldm. I used it as a substitute to h4350, and now I won’t go back. I save the h4350 for my 243.

    They look just like my hardscrabbles. Best boot I’ve ever worn. Wish I had the cash for these right now.

    Edit: Sold

    Unfortunately it is. Crazy times. They want 275 on gunbroker. Uggggg. I felt mad at myself for buying them at 100 bucks. Lol. However I know that people need primers, so I’m just trying to help someone out. I can even add some 22 Lr rounds to the deal if someone is interested. I have a couple 100 round bricks of 22 Lr cci mini mags, that I might let go if someone needs some motivation to make a deal. Lol

    Edit: Sold

    If someone really needed these, I’d be willing to sell out right, but we would have to meet near Show Low. I paid 100 for them so that’s what they’re worth to me for sale. I also value these primers at 100 in trade. I’m not trying to get gunbroker prices and rip anyone off. Just thought I might be able to help a fellow hunter out, and make a trade. I know this is double their value, so I would also value the bullets and ammo I’m looking for at double their value. Not trying to profit from this at all. Just trying to procure some things I’m needing myself.
