Hey all, I need to work on a load for a .375 Ruger that I'm planning to take on a black bear hunt. I know it's over the top for black bear, but they're mixed with grizzlies so I'd like to have a stout rifle with me. Let me know if you have any .375 bullets (projectiles) so I can work on developing a load. At this point, I haven't bought anything but am considering a Cutting Edge 235gr ER Raptor, North Fork PP 300 gr, Nosler Accubond, or a Hawk 300gr round tip x .035 jacket. I was considering a solid copper bullet, but I'm not sure that's a good idea in case I want to take a longer shot; they don't seem to expand so well at distance. If anyone has other suggestions, I'm open for input.

Muley set was found next to each other and appears to be from the same buck. $30 for set Elk shed is a very large 3pt shed from a bull with a genetic defect. As you can see in the pics, this has quite a bit of mass in the main beam. This bull was on my property as you can see from my security cam pic. He is a 3x5 and this is his 3pt shed from this year. You can see his 5pt side has two eye guards. This has nice coloring and would make a nice table piece. $50 located in San Tan Valley text Mike at 6O2-8IO-2469

Good used shooting rest. A little dusty from storage and the surface of the vinyl on the rear pad is peeling a little. However, there are no tears or stitching issues with the fabric. These are awesome for your big-bore rifles that will kill your shoulder. I picked this up in the same condition you see it & used it quite a bit for load development on my larger rifles. Still works like new. $100 in San Tan Valley text Mike at 6O2-8IO-2469

I’ve got a DPMS LR-308 with stainless bull barrel. I’d consider these a higher-end AR10 if you’re considering something in that price range. If you’re looking for a cheap AR10 this isn’t the one for you. Just let me know and I can send pics and pricing if you’re interested.

Laminated stock, 26” barrel with target gray finish. Low round count with great rifling, excellent throat condition, crown, great wood & 2.5lb trigger. Overall excellent condition. Leupold VXIII 6.5x20 AO target scope in gloss finish. (6.5-20x magnification, 40mm objective with 1” tube) Turret caps have a few marks but otherwise nearly perfect condition. Good glass with Butler Creek caps as protection. Scope also has a sunshade and fine duplex target reticle. Also have a partial box (26 rounds) of Hornady Varmint Express 55gr V-MAX ammo which shoots decent. I'm sure an handloader can easily squeeze tighter groups out this rifle. Target pic is with the Hornady ammo. As shown $1500 Less scope $1000 Scope only $700 OFFERS FOR RIFLE/SCOPE COMBO WILL TAKE PRIORITY.

Looking to see if anyone would like to trade another caliber Encore rifle barrel. I just picked up the rifle, but don't have this caliber nor plan to start. I know it's a long shot, but my preference for a new project is either .375 H&H or .458 Win Mag. Let me know what you have to trade, or $350 outright. text Mike at 6O2-8IO-2469

I'd like the .277 Sierra 150 gr Spitzer boat tails. I'm headed down to Tucson tomorrow and will send you a PM and text.

I haven’t been there for a few years now, but we found decent access off Hutch Rd on the west side of 377. If I went back to scout, that’s where I would be starting. Back then, I also heard comments from other hunters that there were more cows in the area I went. They found bigger bulls in the canyons north towards Holbrook. Elk do move around, and land access changes, so I’m not sure if this is even accurate info now. Hope this might be helpful.

Good used condition except printer will not advance due to the rubber roll grip not grabbing the paper. Oehler offers these parts for $60. $200 in San Tan Valley text Mike at 6O2-8IO-2469

New Hawk game crawler cart. Handle folds but still probably needs a pickup to transport. I couldn’t really fit when packing my 4Runner for hunting so am letting it go. Haven’t used it in the field but it does seem to go across obstacles pretty easily. $120 In San Tan Valley text Mike 6O2-8IO-2469
