its not ok to change the rules after the fact.

Went with my buddy to purchase a rifle today. We got a Winchester Model 70 lefthanded and it shoots 7mm STW which I never heard of the cartridge. Got it for 350$ my buddy was wondering what it was in the ballpark value wise. Here is a few photos too!

its completely reasonable to expect to have a bear hunt when they told him he would have a bear hunt.

A J30 EX-L! Great motor. Purpleen was always a good color

7 STW Shooting Times Western, some gun hack back in the 80's or 90's took an large case and necked it down to 7mm. Rumored to be a top of the line barrel burner. Was this rifle originally chambered for it, or is the original chambering stamped out and 7mm STW next to it? Looks like a New Haven model 70, that even if the barrel is toast, your bud still got a good deal. Should be worth 1000-1200 with an online sale. Just my two cents.

Who said it makes sense to screw people over. Let's leave old water under the bridge.

Huge thanks to idgaf...sorry I missed you when you dropped it off, but I'll be up there the next 2 weekends and all next week. I'll be in touch next week...owe you that dinner, coffee, cold beverage, whatever...

#14 m24 22” finish. 5r rifling with 8.7 twist. $750 shipped. thanks, Cliff

I have a Savage 99 250-3000 lever action sitting in the safe. Does anyone know what those are worth? Considering rehoming it.

Alittle high ….40 yard blood trail

Great buy , I have this rh in a 270.

It is the original caliber. Also was made in New Haven CT. Says it on barrel! I tested the bore at the sellers house and it's in amazing condition. The rifling is almost flawless too. No worn out parts or anything. Small stock scratches but is in amazing condition!

7mm STW is so bad butt.

Good looking rifle. Your buddy did well 👍

Very good deal. My dad bought me one exactly like it but right handed for my 12th birthday. It’s killed in the triple digits of big game animals. Great rifles. They’ve got some collector value to them as well. It would bring around a grand on gunbroker I would bet.

I simply said from "their perspective" it makes sense financially. I also said it should say so when applying. But that's just me. The guy with unpopular opinions. And I can live with that

I'm amused you think life is fair. Sovereign nation so they can do what they want, at least they didn't take the ops money.

Shut tf up Kev. They're crooks. "It MaKEs SeNsE tO SCreW PeOplE OveR tO MaKe EXtrA MonEY" drrrrrrr

No problem. Let's meet up and I will take you to my catfish spot, bring lots of hooks and a bucket of liver. If @wildwoody is not working on his tan lines that week we will invite him as well. BTW that flooded timber as you drive in, we use to catch our limits on bare gold hooks there.

Crooks. Stop applying there. Spread the word.

A lot of what you just said rings true for Utah and SFW.

Those reservations are one step above a third world country, with similar corrupt governments that do as they please. They are sovereign so there is no oversight but at the same time they are backed by the U.S. governments money. On top of that, they are some of the most greedy people on the planet that will screw people over to make a quick buck without thinking about the money they will lose in the future. They are lucky they have big money hunters that are willing to pay for those elk tags or they'd all have starved to death by now. The director, Tim Stevens, is a worthless piece of trash, that as you learned just runs things as he pleases and makes up rules as he goes. BUT they know there's enough people that are willing to play their game to get to hunt there so they don't really care.

I was expecting to see a picture of a 2025 Gremlin.

Thanks for your opinion, I’ll keep an eye out for your posts and give you mine.
