Anybody shoot the 30 cal Berger EOL 245gr yet?
azsugarbear replied to rcdinaz's topic in Long Range Shooting
Ballistics, case capacity of the 300 PRC are much closer to the 300 Win Mag than the 300 RUM or 300 Norma Mag. -
Calling all Tikka Gurus!
azsugarbear replied to Buckwheat893's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
This is the very reason why I went with the 300 WSM for my current Tikka build. -
I have 8 lbs of IMR 8133 that I probably won't be using any time soon. IMR is owned by the same people who own Hodgdon and they advertise the 8133 as IMR's answer to Retumbo. Hodgdons burn rate chart shows it right next to Retumbo. Let me know if you have any interest.

Calling all Tikka Gurus!

Have the potential seller run a tight patch down the bore and measure how long it takes to complete one revolution of the cleaning rod. Easiest and best way to really confirm twist. I have found a couple of rifles in my day that were different than what was labeled on the box from the factory. -
WANTED: Barnes bullets (270 LRX 129gn )
azsugarbear replied to Mass-n-Trash's topic in Classified Ads
I have some, but I am into them at nearly $1.00 apiece. It's just what I had to pay with price + shipping. If that is OK, then send me a PM and we will work something out. if not, I understand completely. Maybe work out some sort of trade? -
Just got back from Bruno's. It was pretty busy. As I left, they started limiting powder purchases to 2 pounds per customer. They said they got 80 pounds of retumbo (what I was buying) and that it would all be gone by the end of the day. Retumbo, H1000, H4350 & Varget were all $59.95 + tax per 1 pound bottle.

Len901, send me a PM with what you want. Same for anyone else.

I have no reason to go there, but I'm willing to help out. The problem is: Their prices can be high and I wouldn't have time to call everyone to make sure they are still wanting to purchase. I have found that sometimes their store prices are slightly different than their website prices. I just don't want to get hung out to dry by paying for items that never get picked up. How could we make this work?

WANTED: 270WSM new brass (Winchester brand)
azsugarbear replied to Mass-n-Trash's topic in Classified Ads
I have one bag of unfired Winchester 270 WSM brass I could part with. I have lots of 1X fired brass I am still using. Bag has been opened only to prep brass (flash holes reamed & necks chamfered). I have no idea what these are going for. Any possible trades? -
Give us some idea what you are looking for: Base model that will get the job done? Varmint model with slower twist? Long range coues rifle with faster twist for heavier bullets. Upper end custom?

Is there a set of rules for conduct when buying/selling in the classifieds? I just did a cursory view on the site and couldn't find what I was looking for. I recently had a deal go sideways with a newbie seller who didn't understand an "I'll take it" post in his thread. Losing out on the deal was minor compared to the amount of time I wasted putting my schedule on hold (it meant a couple hour trip to pick it up from him) , waiting for him to respond to me. When I told him how things normally work on the site, I wanted to refer him to some ground rules as to how we operate. Do they exist, or is it something we have informally made up and others learn over time by being on the site? I'm talking about such things as an "I'll take it" posting in a thread, or how a posting in the thread takes priority over a PM, etc. Inquiring minds want to know......

Continuing to clean out the reloading room. Found a couple pounds of powder I will not be using in the near future. $50 apiece - that's just what I have in them. Text or call Karl @ 602-361-7191 with questions. First "I'll take it" in this thread trumps any PM's or phone conversations.

Back up again. These are great performing bullets. I have one unopened box of 100 and another box that has 93 bullets. I have lowered the price on these to $120 for both boxes. Call or text Karl @ 602-361-7191 with questions. First "I'll take it: in this threads trumps any PM's or phone conversations.

Just one pound of each.

More stuff from the reloading room. I have a set of Go / No Go gauges for the 6.5 PRC mad by Pacific Tool & Gauge. You can buy directly from them at $74 plus shipping, or get them from me for $65.00 Call or text Karl @ 602-361-7191 with questions. First "I'll take it" posted in this thread trumps any PM's or phone conversations with me.

I have an 8 lb. jug of IMR 8133 that I would trade for your RL26. Where are you located?

I will probably regret this, but I just don't shoot this enough to keep it around. Up for sale is a minty CZ 455 American in 17 HMR. I bought this back in 2011 thinking I would get more into rimfire, but that hasn't been the case. She has been relegated to the being a safe queen. These are out of stock nearly everywhere. I estimate less than 125 rounds have gone down the barrel. The 455 was designed as an easy 'switch-barrel' rifle for those looking to shoot the other rimfire cartridges available. The numbers on the 17 HMR barrel and action match - as they came as a set. I also have the 22LR barrel conversion kit (which includes the barrel, magazine and spacer for mag well) for this rifle that can be purchased separately, The action has been "skim bedded" to the stock and a new spring and shim from a Yo Dave trigger kit has been installed. The other shims & springs from this kit, along with the original CZ spring $ shim are included with the sale, The stock is a beautiful tiger-striped piece of walnut that is rare for a CZ factory stock. The stock has a few faint scratches. metal blueing is 100% with no scratches, rust or freckling. The rifle comes with the 17 HMR barrel, original 5 round magazine, all springs & shims mentioned above, manual, test target, a Lucas bore guide and original CZ box. Not included at this price is the 22LR conversion kit, bipod or scope and rings. These items may be purchased separately. Price is $495 and it is firm. Low-ballers keep scrolling. The first "I'll Take It" trumps any private messages or texts. Karl 602-361-7191.
