WTS Vortex viper pst gen 2 5-25×50 mrad ebr-2c
PowellSixO replied to PowellSixO's topic in Classified Ads
Scope is sold. Decided to just give it to my little brother. Thanks for looking. -
I have a like new Gen 2 Pst 5-25×50, ffp, mrad, with Ebr-2c reticle scope for sale. Glass is perfect, scope body is perfect. May have scope ring marks, as I have not removed it from the aero precision one piece rings they have been mounted in yet. I've had this on my gasser 224 valkyrie for exactly 60 rounds, so it hasn't seen extreme recoil. I have the box, sunshade, vortex bubble level, and vortex flip up scope caps all included. Rings NOT included. I'm asking $750 shipped and insured. Prefer PayPal for payment. PM me, or text me at 435-668-9597. Thanks for looking. Edit: Price reduced below.

So I've done the research, and I've called game and fish. Their response was "I don't know". Haha. So let's say you find a sweet glassing spot in unit 125, which allows you to glass into unit 126. Your tag is for unit 126. You're glassing opening morning, and the buck or bull you've been waiting for, walks out and gives you a 300 yard shot. The animal is in your unit, but you're in a different unit. Can you shoot it??? You're technically hunting the right unit, and you kill the animal in the right unit, but your take the shot from a different unit. Is that good to go, or is g&f going to slap the cuffs on you???
-
Last thing I have to say, is that I never intended to stir the pot, or get anyone fired up. I really just wanted to know what was truly legal. I found my answer, and I hope it helps someone in the future. Sorry if some feathers got ruffled along the way. 👍

https://www.azgfd.com/agency/commission/members/ At the bottom of each person, is a contact link. Contact your commissioners if you don't believe me. Also read the description of their duties at the top of that page. They are the ones to ultimately interpret the laws.
-
I've already spoken to 3 game wardens and they were no help. All they would say is I don't know. See post above!
-
Just spoke with the Commissioner. It IS 100% LEGAL to shoot from one unit into another unit, as long as no other rules are broken. No shooting across roads, structures, and so on. I'm not going to list his name (so a million people don't call him), but all of the commissioners are aware of it. So he said call your local commissioner if you don't believe some crazy guy on Coues Whitetail. It IS LEGAL.

What I'm not seeing is the FROM part. You can justify it from either perspective. I can understand it from both sides. What I WANT, is a cut and dry answer here. That's the thing I hate about keyboard warriors. They refuse to try and see a scenario from both sides of the fence. I can see it from your perspective, but you refuse to try and see it from mine. Doesn't make either of us right. I had an hour conversation with an Arizona Game Commissioner, and he didn't know the answer. He didn't criticize me, or say you're wrong because this is the way I feel. He said I see it from my side, and I can see it from your side, let me find out. So why is your opinion on the way you interpret the rules here make it the end all? That's my criticism of your argument. Edit: I'm not trying to be an butt here. I'm not saying I'm right either. And I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying that it is not as cut and dry as you're claiming it is. It definitely leaves room for argument. I'm just wanting a real answer here, not an opinion.
-
I'm waiting on the AZ game commissioners to discuss it, and give me a real answer. I'll post the facts once I find them out, not my biased "my way is the only way" opinion.
-
So from your point of view, it is okay to shoot animal in the wrong unit as long as you're "pursuing" from the same unit as your tag, and "taking" from the same unit as your tag. Your logic works both ways. You're just interpreting it the way YOU want to interpret it. Just saying.
-
Thanks for all the responses. I just found out, i work with one of the Arizona game commissioners. I'm going to contact him next week and get the real scoop. I'll post the results. Thanks again.
-
It's in az. I just didn't want to give specific units, just in case someone had something they thought I was blowing up. I don't even have a tag this year.
-
There we go. Thanks for that.
-
See that's the thing. I'm not hunting that unit. I'm targeting the correct unit. I shoot the correct animal, in the correct unit, with the correct tag. I realize it's a slippery slope. But we're dealing with feelings and emotions here. I lose that battle all day long with the leo that wants to prove his wenus is bigger than mine. I'm looking for hard evidence that says I can NOT do it.

So I hate to sell this rifle, as it is the most accurate rifle that I own. It's also my favorite cartridge ever. It will almost do everything a 7 mm Rem Mag will do (50 fps slower), but with a LOT less powder, and a LOT less recoil. This thing kicks like a 243 win. Any who, my new custom 7 SAUM is almost finished, and it doesn't make sense to keep two of the same calibers. Plus I want some cash to put a new Nightforce NX8 or NXS or ATACR on the new 7 SAUM. This rifle started as a Savage 308 Model 10 Short action (Center feed with removable bottom mag, and top bolt release). The barrel was removed, and a X-Caliber 25", 1:9 Twist, Varmint Counter, 7 SAUM chambered, Cryogenic Frozen barrel was installed. I then purchased a HS-Precision PSV118 Stock, that was installed. The factory accutrigger has been modified to 1.5-2 lbs (can't remember exactly, but I can measure it). The trigger is amazing. Lite enough to be super accurate, but not lite enough to be scary for hunting. I also had a tactical bolt handle put on the rifle, as well as an EGW picatinny rail. The rifle includes the picatinny rail, bipod, and sling. NO SCOPE, RINGS, OR BUBBLE LEVEL INCLUDED. I have $460 in the stock, $500+ in the barrel, $350 in the Action, $100 in the trigger, $40 in the EGW picatinny rail, $45 in the bolt handle and knob, $75 in the bipod, and $30 in the sling. So almost $1600 in this rifle, excluding any labor. I will also include the load recipe I have worked up for this rifle, plus 20 rounds already loaded, so you can see what this rifle can do. This rifle can and will shoot .5 moa. I will give a 1 moa guarantee to whomever buys it, or I will buy it back. It currently shoots the 162 ELDX extremely well. I've put 20 round groups at or under an inch, at 200 yards, on multiple occasions. I have 155 documented rounds through this rifle. The loads are on the mild side, so this barrel has a LOT of life left in it. The only down side for me, is that it is a little on the heavy side. If I recall it weighs in around 9.5 lbs without the optic. I will make someone a great deal at $ 750 bucks FIRM. I don't need to sell, just trying to get into a new Nightforce ATACR a little quicker. Only trades considered would be towards a Nightforce NXS or ATACR, and it must be in mils (with cash on my end obviously). Shoot me a text or call me at 435-668-9597. Pics are included of the rifle, and the very first 20 shot group ever taken at 200 yards (when zeroing the rifle). I bore sighted the rifle, and the VERY FIRST SHOT was 2" high. I dialed the scope down, and put the other 19 in the hole you see below it. Thanks for looking. Located in Show Low, AZ.
