Should have put the user name as undercover Leo. Lol.

Unfortunately it is. Crazy times. They want 275 on gunbroker. Uggggg. I felt mad at myself for buying them at 100 bucks. Lol. However I know that people need primers, so I’m just trying to help someone out. I can even add some 22 Lr rounds to the deal if someone is interested. I have a couple 100 round bricks of 22 Lr cci mini mags, that I might let go if someone needs some motivation to make a deal. Lol

If someone really needed these, I’d be willing to sell out right, but we would have to meet near Show Low. I paid 100 for them so that’s what they’re worth to me for sale. I also value these primers at 100 in trade. I’m not trying to get gunbroker prices and rip anyone off. Just thought I might be able to help a fellow hunter out, and make a trade. I know this is double their value, so I would also value the bullets and ammo I’m looking for at double their value. Not trying to profit from this at all. Just trying to procure some things I’m needing myself.

If you had a few more I’d take you up on the offer. Edit: what manufacturer are they?

I have a brand new brick of 1000 Federal 210 LR primers. I would like to trade these, for the following items. If the trade isn’t listed I’m not interested. - 6.5mm 147 eldm bullets (Just the bullets, not loaded ammo). - 7mm rem mag Norma Brass, must be new. - 40 s&w 180gr jacketed hollow points, loaded ammo. Disclaimer: These are listed on other websites, so first to text me at +14356689597 and work out a deal gets them. Willing to negotiate the deals a little, but must be for items listed. For the right deal, I’ll cover hazmat shipping to your door.

SOLD!!!!! Thanks for looking.

Bruno’s had h4895 this morning.

Looking for 223 rem brass. Don’t care what kind, as long as it the same type. Also looking for fmj bullets. I’m also in need of a die set. If I can’t buy the ammo, I’ll make it. Thanks.

Actually, still looking for a die set if anyone has one. Thanks.

boreman03 thanks very much. It was nice speaking to you on the phone. No longer looking. Thanks

Lot more places to hunt than the big bo

You will have little to no rut activity. You are going to have to spot and stalk, or sit water. With how dry it is this year, sitting an isolated water source would be my first choice. It's a late archery tag, don't expect too much. There's a reason it doesn't take any points to obtain. It's a rough tough hunt, but not impossible for those who know what they're up against.

I've killed a few elk with my rifle, one being a nice bull that went on the wall. I've been apart of dozens of other rifle bulls killed, and cows killed. I've been apart of several archery bulls killed, and I've even had an archery bull tag myself about 10 years ago (Scouted 35 days, hunted 14, and went home with tag soup). Hunting elk with a bow is no easy feat. I scouted 15 weekends before my hunt this year. I also spent a full week scouting the week before my hunt. I then hunted hard for 13 days. On day 13 I finally was able to achieve the hardest thing I've ever done hunting........ Kill a bull with my bow. With all the scouting I did, finding elk was never a problem. I had plan A-Z, and then some. I was in elk every day of the hunt. The big problem was me. I was always able to screw it up some how. Lol. I've never been a super patient man. Well with every day that passed, I learned that patience is a very important tool to the elk hunter. I had opportunities every day of the hunt (most of which I blew), and opportunities at bulls much bigger than the one I ultimately killed. I had a standard of a mature 6x6 bull, score not being a factor. On day 6 of the hunt, I was able to make a shot on a very nice 315ish bull. He came in quartered to me, and I fought the urge to take the shot at 30 yards. He knew something was up, turned and started walking away. At the 40 yard mark, he was perfectly quartered away, and I took the shot. I hit exactly where I wanted. He took off like a bat out of heck, ran into a tree, and pulled the arrow. After tracking him for 400 yards, the blood was gone. My heart sunk. We backed out overnight, and began the search the next morning. After crawling on our hands and knees for another 200 yards, we lost all blood. We spent 2 and a half days searching for that bull, and I never found him. My only conclusion is, that I hit him a little too far forward, and only got one lung. I hope with all my heart, that bull made it. I spent the next half a day thinking about calling the hunt, or continuing on with it. I finally decided that I would continue hunting that area in hopes of finding that bull alive, or dead, and that I would only take another shot if it was a for sure thing. Once again I was on elk every day, and had more and more encounters. I had to stop myself from a few nice opportunities, on nice 6x6 bulls. I still wasn't over hitting the first bull. Fast forward to day 13. I get up a little bit late, but get into a spot that was close to camp, and had been abandoned by the rest of the other hunters. I hear 3 bulls going crazy, and I spent 2 hours shadowing the group, keeping the wind right, and the elk close. I finally get to where I can feel the bugles in my chest, and I can see elk feet. I let out a call, and my bull came running in like it was possessed. He ran in so fast, he actually over shot me by 9 yards. He was now quartered away, and only at 9 yards. I figured this was as good as it was going to get. I settled my pin 2 inches low, knowing my arrow would hit high at that distance, and sent one right through his heart. He ran less than 40 yards, got the shaky legs, and went over. 10 seconds later a 330 bull that I'd been after, comes walking right past me at a whopping 12 yards. He stops, he bugles, he pisses, he walks over to my bull, he barks at him a few times, and then he walks off like nothing happened. Every hair on my body was standing up!!! This will go down as one of my absolute favorite hunts!! It will go down as one of the hardest hunts (physically and emotionally) I've been apart of. It is also one of the proudest hunts I've ever been on. While I passed on bigger bulls, and saw much bigger bulls, I'm super pround of the little 5x5 I was able to harvest this year. I feel horrible about the one that got away, but I learned from it. ELk are big targets, but they're tough targets, and you have to be careful about your shot. While the kill zone is big, if you don't hit it right, you're doing yourself and the elk no favors. I could have left that bit out of my story, but it happened, and I wanted to be completely honest about my trip. I have a knew respect for how tough these animals are. Anyways, enough of my jabbering. Sorry for the photos, but I was solo, so I didn't have anyone to take them for me. I even had to do a selfie. Ugggg.

Thanks. I’m always down for a hunting trip.

I shared the story on rockslide. I copied and pasted. I’m too stupid to get it to look normal. Lol

I don’t understand people. I was in my tree stand, when these guys thought it would be fun to ruin my evening hunt. I was too slow to get my phone out, but my trail cam had it covered. Rant over.

Thanks. He went 40 yards.

There are plenty of respectable people out there on side by sides, so I don’t want people to think this is a bash. There are plenty of douche bags in trucks too. But I did want to share something I learned this hunt. I was in elk every single day. If I had a caller, it would have ended very different. Doing this stuff solo is tough. But after being inside of 50 yards on a bull every day on this hunt, I got to see elk behavior like I never have before. Every morning I was up and in my spot listening to bugles an hour before the sun came up. This usually consisted of a 1-3 mile hike. And that was just to get in place to start chasing. Every morning something else would also happen. Just before light the majestic sound of bugles all around, would stop at the sound of a side by side. You can hear those things a dang mile away!! They are not elk magnets. The elk actually shut up, and move away from the sound. It’s amazing. As soon as the side by side noise would disappear, a single mew would fire everything right back up. So maybe this will help someone, or maybe no one will care, but elk respond to your rig. Loud trucks same thing. But the quiet vehicles never had quite the same response. It was cool to experience.

I forgot to mention, the toad was not a road to be driven anymore. It’s a roadless area, that’s well marked. But some people don’t care.

No plate. And yes they knew I was there. Unfortunately some people suck. Good news is, I still had a ton of elk come into that water hole. Just none big enough. Some that I regret not shooting. Any ways, I called in a little 5x5 on day 13 and decided to fill my tag. So the hunt was still a success. Not the 330 I was after, but better than tag soup. I did get my arrow in the big bull, but did not kill him. I looked for 2 full days and no sign of him.

Look through them before you do, and do it in the field. They have a flattening effect that I absolutely hated. Money was not a concern, and the SLC to me was better for my eyes. I wanted to like the el's, but I couldn't. I have the 15's for my tripod, and the 10's for my tripod and chest carry. Best glass there is. You can look through them from sun up to sun down with zero eye strain.
