Im located in Buckeye but I’m from the Elfrida area and regularly make trips that way as well. One person contacted me about it earlier so I will let you know what happens with that.

A member originally gave me a great deal on it so I’m just trying to pass that a long.

Morning everyone, hope you all had a good thanksgiving. Last night my truck was broken in to and I had my Winchester Model 70 Varmint stolen. It’s chambered in 223 and has a Leupold VX-II 3-9x40 with a rifleman ballistic reticle. I was just posting this here in hopes of recruiting you good folks in to keeping an eye out for it. I have the serial number and I am reporting it stolen. My number is 480-294-7102 and I am located in the Buckeye area if anybody sees one pop up for sale online or in a pawnshop. Thank you all for reading! Best, Randy L

I posted this bike last fall and almost did a trade with a member on here until I had an electrical issue with it at our meet up (very embarrassing). Anyway it ended up just being a broken ground wire from the push start button to the starter relay and thats the only issue Ive ever had with it. Now Im back to selling it. Its a 2006 Suzuki SV650 with 27,900 miles. Bike runs very well, lots of torque being a V-Twin. It was always just a commuter vehicle while I was in college, very rarely taken on any long rides. I'm the second owner, purchased at 11,000 miles from original owner and has been regularly maintained. I added the Delkevic exhaust, belly pan and after market fairing. The issues on the bike are mostly cosmetic, -The front break oil reservoir holds oil but the piece of plastic that mounts to the handle bars is broken. It still sits upright. -Few small nicks in the riders seat. -The front fairing is cheap, the lights get hot and warp the lense and even put a small hole in the reflective dome (pictured) but it's still fully functional. This runs outstanding and would make a great commuter or first motorcycle for someone. It's 11 years old so don't expect mint condition but it's a very sound and dependable bike. Can send more pictures upon request. Asking $2000.

Hey everyone, I have come up against a predicament with my first long range shooter and I was hoping to take advantage of the wealth of knowledge here. Any suggestions, advice or contacts for experts will be greatly appreciated. As I said, Ive put together my first long range hunting rifle and Im having an accuracy issue not so far downrange. I obviously have not ruled out shooter error since thats generally the issue with all newbies, however I think I may have a problem outside of that. Equipment info: Christensen Ridgeline 7mm rem mag, Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56mm, Nightforce base and rings. Load: 168 gr Berger VLD, 69 gr Retumbo, Norma brass, Federal 210M primers - 2990 FPS So I finally got a load to group at just a hair over 1/4 inch (pictured). It is zeroed at 100 yds nearly exactly (about an eighth inch low and eighth inch right). Using the Shooter app, I entered all data and triple checked everything and shot at the range maximum distance of 375 yards. I shot about a half inch low but 3-3.5 inches right. I put about a 2 inch group of 4 bullets in that area. I made a 4.8 moa adjustment up but zero wind adjust as there was not even the slightest breeze and the range is down in a 15 ft hole. So my question is, that outside of me possibly just being a terrible shooter (just based on the grouping), how could I be off by that much with such a tight zero at 100 yds? 375 yds seems awefully close to have so much error. I had Sportsmans Warehouse mount the scope, could this be a scope level issue? Or a scope centering issue? The NXS has a parallax adjustment but I suppose that could still be part of it? Like I said, any help would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone else had this issue? Thank you all for assisting a newbie. Merry Christmas! Randy

Troubleshooting an accuracy problem
D4HighDesert replied to D4HighDesert's topic in Long Range Shooting
I took the rifle to the gunsmith today. My scope was canted about .75 degrees. I had him level it and put on a US Optics rail mounted level. I’ll be testing it out tomorrow and will post whether or not the problem is completely solved. -
Troubleshooting an accuracy problem
D4HighDesert replied to D4HighDesert's topic in Long Range Shooting
Yes sir, everything was from the same lot. The group pictured above was shot first and then I shot the group at 375 immediately after with no cleaning in between. However, the gun was cleaned just prior to shooting. It was about 75 degrees the entire time. I am using Caldwell bags front and rear (rear bag has ears). I have done nothing with the bedding at all. -
Troubleshooting an accuracy problem
D4HighDesert replied to D4HighDesert's topic in Long Range Shooting
Thank you all very much! I’m going to take it to a gunsmith tomorrow and make sure there’s no cant in the reticle and the eye relief is perfect. I’ll also have him make sure I’m still at factory torque specs on the screws and a bubble level put on. This will be a big help in making sure my equipment is all sound so I can focus on improving my own shooting errors.
