IA Born

We sold the 25 tickets and drew a winner over the weekend. Michael Rubin from Globe is the winner of this raffle. If you'd like to see another one up for raffle, just say so and I'll go back to our committee to make it happen. I love getting feedback of what people want to see raffled!

Saw is also sold. Both sets of rings, 12g turkey ammo, and call still available.

Powders are all sold. Saw is SPF. All else is available and I have it all with me down here in west Valley.

All powders are SPF. Scope rings, 12g turkey ammo, saw, and call still available. In the valley 4/23-4/25 on west side of town. Arriving 12-1pm Friday and leaving Sunday morning.

I've got a full box of Hornady Magnum turkey loads. 12g 3" #5 shot. Full box of 10. I'll be in the west valley, near Cabela's Friday afternoon-Sunday morning.

That's an owl call. I had an old gobbler shaker, but I think i tossed it. I have a good Primos gobble shaker in my vest I'd part with if you're interested. I never use it.

Deal for all the powders and 12g turkey loads fell through due to unfortunate circumstances. Dano562 was next in line and has spoken for the Varget and H380. Big Game powder, 12g turkey loads, both sets of scope rings, saw, and call are still available. Should be at hotel near Cabela's around noon Friday. Will be in and out Friday and Saturday as we celebrate our daughter's birthday. Heading home to Flagstaff early Sunday.

Powder and turkey loads are SPF. Rings, call, and saw are still available. Will ship these four things.

joohnnybgood is taking all 3. If something falls through, you're next in line.

I'm clarifying with joohnnybgood which powders he wants since he spoke up first. As soon as I hear back from him, I'll let you know. Thanks!

Got it and answered. Yours to take.

Its available. Which ones?

Things fell through with deals last year and I forgot about this. Bumping back up since we'll be in the west valley April 23-24. Can bring stuff with me.

You should get it for me! I promise no man-buns, no flat-billed hats, and I won't say "bro"!

My son's name was inspired by Big Jake, my favorite John Wayne movie. I tried to convince my wife to let me name him Jacob McCandles Wooldridge, but that was shot down quickly. Jacob Robert (my dad) is what we ended up with. I'm still a fan of Silverado, but I liked Open Range, too. Pale Rider is hard to beat, as is Unforgiven. Outlaw Josey Wales is another all-time favorite.

I'm in Flagstaff, but have a friend in Tucson that could meet you and take that H1000 from you on my behalf if the price is right. I also have a mostly full bottle of Varget that my daughter's 7-08 didn't like. Has like 12 rounds worth of 7-08 missing. Otherwise, mostly full.

Shoot me a pm with the full unit boundaries. 6B is my backyard and I've spent quite a bit of time in it over the years. I can point you to some areas that I've seen pronghorn regularly if I'm thinking its your area.

I took my HE way back in the 80s in Iowa when the classes were first offered and required for anyone born 1969 and later. I inquired years ago when I first moved to Iowa and, no, it doesn't count towards AZ bonus point. It has reciprocity as being a valid course, but you have to take an AZ course to get it. I know HE staff are offering the Bonus Point Field Day for adults in Phoenix. Its an hour-long self-guided course intended for hunters who have been hunting at least 4 years (close to that time frame). You show up, do some demonstrations, shoot a .22, and take the test. If you pass, you'll get your bonus point for the AZ draw. We need to start doing that in Flagstaff, so we can save class space for the kids who really need the in-person learning when we get back to that point. We're hoping by this summer to be back teaching.

Both of my kids have 7mm-08s and both rifles have 4-5 loads each that are under 1-inch. I only load Barnes, specifically the 140gr TTSX, but both are at ~2700fps MV. Loads include RL15, IMR 4064 (son's), IMR 4895 (daughter's) and H380 (both). Hunting loads are with IMR 4064 (son's) with 0.48" group and IMR 4895 (daughter's) with a 0.58" group. My daughter's 7-08 also shoots Hornady 139gr GMX factory loads sub 1-inch. That doesn't help much with your heavy bullets, but its another perspective.

I've had a different perspective. I've heard them gobble year round, including shock gobbling. Shock gobbling is less about breeding and more a natural reaction to noises, in general.

I sure hope this was taken before it froze! 😜

Thanks! I didn't even think of the single shot options. I'll send it along.

Helping a friend get a left-handed youth 7-08 for her son. He turns 10 in May. I've seen some on here from time to time, so hoping someone has one or knows of one. Let me know if you have anything you're parting with and I'll get her in touch with you. He was supposed to be in one of our HE classes up here last summer, but that was canceled and I train in Taekwondo with him. He's a great kid and I want to help him out. Many thanks!

Thanks, but the kid is way too small for a 300WM.

If you make it to El Paso, stop by a Chico's Tacos and order a double!
