    ZEISS Conquest 3-9-40 MC rifle scope

    SPF to Hoss50
  2. This was part of a recent rifle purchase. I already have two of these nifty scopes on a couple of rifles, so this one is up for sale. In its price range, I don't think you will find a better scope. It is rugged, durable and comes with excellent glass. In terms of glass quality, it is definitely a big step up from the Leupold VXII. The scope has 3-9 varibale power with a 40mm objective. It has a 1" tube and weighs a scant 15 ounces. Most of the Conquest 3-9x40 came with the standard Z-Plex reicle, whuch was nothing more than bold crosshair that stepped down to a fine crosshair near the center. This particular scope has the Rapid Z 600 reticle, which has the same crosshair as the Z-Plex, but also includes hash marks on the horizontal crosshair for holdover at 200 thru 600 yards that fit most bullet profiles. There are no ring marks, but the scope does have a ding on the ocular part of the body that appears to the left of "assembled in USA" on the scope body picture. The glass in both lenses are in pristine condition. These scopes seem to be getting harder and harder to find in great condition these days. Located in N Phx/Scottsdale area. $325

    Well, that figures. I just bought one on Friday. Science needs to get involved in this and figure out why a better deal comes along after you have already spent your money. Never fails. Free bump.
  6. The Sightron SIII 6-24X50 is a good compromise on weight and hey fit within your budget. You can usually find a used one for around $650-$700.

    270 WSM sizing issues

    I just picked up some ADG brass in 270 WSM. I can usually get 12-16 reloads on a single piece of brass before I begin to experience any problems.Once you fire them, but them in the shellhold and run them allthe way up. Then screw down the die until you meet resistance. Then lower the shellholder/brass a littleand screw down the die another full turn. That will usually result in a shoulder bump od 2 thous. Then test the resized case to make sure it chambers properly. Then load 'em up and have fun.
  8. This pack is in near-new condition. I bought this from a member on CWT many years ago and never really used it. I can't remember the name of this pack and it that has since been discontinued. The pack is designed to carry a bow externally, with a 'bucket' attached at the bottom that holds the bottom cam of your bow. The riser/limbs are then tied down with molle strap attached to the pack. There is a small compartment that serves as a day pack with lots of pockets and additional compartments located on the pack and hip belt. The pack has two side pockets designed specifically for hydration/camelpacks, etc. Great padding on hip belt, shoulder straps and in the small of the back for great support. Lots of molle web for attaching addl items. No rips tears or any wear in the camo fabric. No sweat stains anywhere. No blood stains (I prefer to use a packboard for hauling out meat). All buckles and zippers work and function as they should. Great way to keep your hands free and arms from getting tired as you walk into your hunt area. Asking $125 $100. If you are considering a new pack purchase, you owe it to yourself to come see this one first. I live in the north Phx/Scttsdl area near the north 101 Loop and 56th Street.
  9. This pack is in near-new condition. Only used in the field a couple of times (didn't get drawn for many hunts requiring pack-ins the last 10 years). The Gunslinger II is a very versatile pack. It can be used as a large day pack, but could also be used for minimal overnight hunts as well. It carries my chair, seat pad, large tripod, spotting scope with room left over for food and water. Alternatively, it has carried a couple of decoys and some blind material on my turkey hunts. It has lots of useful pockets on sides and belt. Great padding on hip belt, shoulder straps and in the small of the back for great support. Lots of molle web for attaching addl items. No rips tears or any wear in the camo fabric. No sweat stains anywhere. No blood stains (I prefer to use a packboard for hauling out meat). All buckles and zippers work and function as they should. The Gunslinger II also has an internal padded scabbard for carrying your scoped rifle or shotgun. It easily accomodates my long range rifle with a 28" barrel. Easiest way I have found to carry everything when hiking back into far away glassing knobs. This pack retails new for $350 plus tax. Asking $250 $220. If you are considering a new pack purchase, you owe it to yourself to come see this one first. I live in the north Phx/Scttsdl area near the north 101 Loop and 56th Street.
  10. I have a leftover partial box of the 285 gr. Hammer Hunter bullets in .338 caliber. These are mono bullets requiring a 1 in 9" twist barrel. They shot very well in my rifle, but decided to go a different direction. There are 27 remaining in the box and would be great for experimenting in your 338 rifle. Hammer wants $41 plus tax and shipping for a sample pack of 15 bullets. Price is $45 $35 for the 27 remaining bullets. I live in the north Phx/Scttsdl area near the north 101 Loop and 56th Street.
