Anyone have any big game they could spare and ship?
Looking for a couple pounds.

FYI
I am in NW PA and could also trade primers or powder in a ftf deal if I had to travel a bit.
Thanks

Be careful, it is against the law to barter or trade wild game meat or products. It is totally ok for someone to give you some and if you want to give something else back out of kindness, that's fine, but bartering for is a no no. "I'll give you 10 lbs of meat for $50" could get you ticketed and who knows what else. (that statement is not an offer to trade or barter meat).
Good luck in finding nice people to share their goods.

Big Game is a tough one to come by and when it's available it sells out really fast.

It’s worth whatever you have to do to find it.
Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

Keep an eye on midsouth shooters supply. I’ve picked up an 8lb-er about a month ago and they have had it in stock one other time since then. I use a lot of it and kick myself for not grabbing a 2nd 8lb-er.

I bought an 8lber from Powder Valley about 3 weeks ago. Ended up getting that and pound of 760 for less than I could have on a shelf here locally.

I’ve used BG for 120 TTSX, 120 BT, 140 AB, 140 PT, and 150 ELD-X. Magnum primers. Dead elk with the last three. Dead deer with the last four.

I have 120gr Sierra PH, 140gr Sierra GK, 120gr NBT, 140gr NBT and 140gr NPT.
Aidans 7-08 shoots the 120Ph well, Konnors gun shoots the 120NBT. Both are running 4350 at this time. I cannot remember the exact charges. Whitetail loads.
I'm planning to run the 140NBT or the 140PT in my M70
If I cannot locate the BG I will probably go with the 4350 as well.

Big Game is a awesome powder. My 7-08 loves with it and 150 gr NBT's. Glad Ive got several pounds laid back. It's HARD to find right now and expensive if you must buy from "brokers"
