    Covid, whos had it and how are you recovering?

    Interesting. I’ve been having to take Benadryl at night to keep my throat from itching. I still can’t eat a1 sauce. Lol

    Covid, whos had it and how are you recovering?

    The stripping of rights, government control, small businesses ruined, and hysteria is absolute garbage. But don’t kid yourself that it isn’t real. Maybe you can tell us how bad rubella is, or how bad mumps is, or some other viral ailments you may or may not have had?

    Covid, whos had it and how are you recovering?

    I had it in January. Mild symptoms at first. Then I developed severe central sleep apnea. Thousands of dollars later, and several sleep studies, I’m starting to get it under control. Went 5 nights without a single second of sleep at my worst, due to insane panic attacks when I’d just start to fall asleep. Pretty darn miserable. Might have been a complete coincidence, but doctors are unsure. At the same time I got the COVID and the apnea, I had multiple blood draws which went crazy for no apparent reason. Alt numbers crazy high like liver failure, white blood count numbers almost at zero, and multiple other weird things. All have since returned to perfect, and again no explanation from doctors. It’s been a wild ride. I’m back to feeling 60%, and I’m finally getting regular sleep.

    One of ours!!!!!

    Thanks for the heads up. I’m out of town this weekend, but I’ll head into show low to buy a bunch.
  12. Use rcbs seating dies for Berger. They have a custom seating stem you can swap in for the Berger bullets.
  13. What do you mean by damage? The tip?
  14. Axis works is as good of a place as you’ll ever find. Eric is great to deal with too.

    WTB Prefit Barrel

    Can’t help you with a barrel, but the 7 saum is a great choice. Make sure you have it chambered with extra freebore, so you can load the bullets out for extra powder room in the case. I just had a barrel done through benchmark for a 243 I’m having done for my kids. Turnaround was super fast. You might give them a call. Might be able to get one done quick.

    Wrangler 1991 Wrangler YJ

    I have a good running 1991 Wrangler YJ up for sale. 271k miles on the Jeep. 4.0 engine, manual trans. Runs very well, and is mechanically sound. No leaks. New wheels and tires with maybe 3k miles on them since purchase. New soft top within the last year. Full size matching spare. Clutch, flywheel, throw out bearing, slave cylinder, and driveshaft ujoints replaced by local shop within last year. Brakes work great. It drives great down the highway, even at 75+ mph. It’s a good jeep for the money. Absolutely no rust on the jeep. New battery 3 months ago. bad: rattle can paint job, gas gauge doesn’t work, shocks are older and probably will need replaced in the near future, driver side mirror cracked, brake light lens cracked, seats are old and worn but have seat covers on them, no seat belts in rear, AC compressor is there but needs replaced. I have tried to be as open an honest about this as possible. Runs and drives great. Not perfect, but good starting point for a build, or good hunting rig. No check engine lights on (yes it does have a check engine light). $3800 firm. No I won’t take $3799. No payments! Only trade considered would be a Honda dirt bike for 9 year old kid. Located I show low. 435-668-9597

    6mm Remington deer bullet

    I used to be a big Berger fan. They shoot really well and they do kill. However the performance on game was hit or miss. I’ve since switched to the eldx. It’s a fantastic bullet. It’s similar to Berger in design, with a polymer tip, and a copper ridge inside the jacket to allow the front of the bullet to expand and fragment. The base stays together to allow as much penetration as possible. I’ve taken game from 150 yards, to 809 yards. I took this bucks last year at 809. Bullet was dangling from the skin on the opposite shoulder. This was a 175 eldx, from my 7saum. I shoot the 103eldx from my 243 win. But if you don’t have the twist, I’d go with the 90eldx. Great bullets.
