    .243 WSSM w/ extras

    I posted this rifle several years ago. I just got it re-barreled this year. Super fun rifle to shoot. I just have too many and need to clean out the safe a bit. It’s a 243 WSSM I bought for my boys. It is a Winchester Model 70. It has a Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 on it. 215 pieces of brass (60 of it nickel plated). 200 Berger, 300 Hornady ELD-X bullets. And 7 boxes of the Winchester 95 grain ballistic silvertips (these alone would sell for about $1,000 online). And the reloading dies. I just never shoot it and would like to sell it to someone that could use it. Super cool round that just kind of went extinct. Everything in the pic adds up to $3,092 if I were to sell everything individually online. I am posting it all for half of that. I know there is a niche market for these, but wanted to offer it up to you all before I post it anywhere else. Selling everything for $1,500 (not gonna split anything up). Located in Queen Creek.

    .243 WSSM w/ extras

    It’s a 1 in 8” twist rate. The barrel was a blank from X Caliber. Then I had Southern Xpress do the smithing for me.

    Winchester Model 70 .243 WSSM

    Selling a Winchester Model 70 .243 WSSM. I bought this for my son a few years ago and never really had the time to develop a load for it. I am including just under 4 pounds of Hodgdon Superformance powder I bought primarily for this rifle, just over 2 boxes of 87 grain Berger VLD Hunting bullets, 186 pieces of brass, ten 95 grain Winchester Ballistic Silvertips, and RCBS reloading dies. The rifle has a Nikon Buckmaster 3-9x40 BDC scope on it. Selling all items as a package deal for $550.

    270 WSM opinions

    Bummer about the deal falling through. I had a Tikka T3 stainless lite in the 270 WSM with a muzzle break on it. Crazy fast, accurate, flat shooting rifle. My dad shot a couse with it at 700 yards with one shot and never gave it back.

    Zeiss conquest HD

    I have a pair of the SLC 10x42's that I absolutely love. I carry them around my neck and have been using them on a tripod as well. That being said, I always knew I was giving up something by not having a good pair of 15's. I just purchased the Conquest 15x56 hd's for this season and am so glad I did. I personally could not really tell a difference between them and the new Swaro's. For the money, the conquest hd's are really impressive!

    Mady's Bull

    Stan the Man! I am so proud of Mady! This is such a great story and experience. I'm just sorry I couldn't get out of work to tag along. Looking back now, I should have just quit! I hope I get to experience hunts like this with my own kids regardless of the size of the animal. Again, congrats brother!

    Shot My Fox Pro!

    Too funny! The closest I came was when I took a buddy for his first predator hunt a couple years ago. We had a bobcat come in within 30 seconds of calling. It came straight to the call and was nosing around on it for a minute or so. It was all I could do to keep him from shooting until the cat started to walk away. It was pretty neat but I was getting nervous for the caller there for a second.

    WTS 6mm Bergers

    Selling two new boxes of 95 grain 6mm Bergers. They are the VLD Hunting bullets. Boxes are from the same lot. I bought them online. After taxes and shipping I paid $87.00. I will let them go for $70.00 for both or $35.00 each. I can return them to Cabela's but figured I'd see if anyone wanted them here first.

    Berger bullets for hunting

    It took a bit of work for my old 270 WSM with the 140 grain bergers. But persistence paid off. That gun is an absolute machine now. My Dad ended up buying it from me after he dropped a buck at 650 yards with one shot. I am working on a load for my new 300 WSM with the 168's. I already tried a couple I developed for my brother's 300 WSM and they shot pretty well through mine. I will likely just have to make a few tweaks one way or the other. My experience is that it is worth the time to find out how your gun likes them. Once you do, these bullets don't let animals get away. I have yet to see a deer hit by one go anywhere. Sure, some may take a follow up, but they won't go anywhere. It is very nice having the confidence that you are shooting one of the most (if not the most) accurate bullets made while have the knock down performance you can count on when your looking through your scope getting ready to shoot an animal.

    A signed over tag....

    Dude, I am so bummed I miss this hunt with you guys! I'm so glad Braeden was able to get it done. He worked hard on that elk hunt and this one. Plus, it made my boy so much more excited to hopefully get a chance next year with his first year of being able to put in. Don't worry about the truck though, it makes for a great story and good memories!

    Kyle, beautiful buck man. Looks like the swaro binos and spotter came in handy.

    Stan, you crack me up brother! I laughed so hard at that video. Glad you could have such a nice conversation with the bear. You are one gutsy fella, that's for shizzle!

    270 WSM

    I have a 270 WSM in the Tikka T3 Lite. I love it! I shoot 140 grain bergers out of it. It has taken several deer out to 750 yards and could go further if wanted. I have a muzzle break on it as well. I will never own another caliber. Best caliber for the west IMO.

    Thoughts on Baiting

    I know right?! But hey, I set the parameters for my opinion. I know they are unrealistic, but those are them.
