^ you had a few beautiful rifles in your inventory. That used custom 7mm MAG is still on my mind. If you want one rifle that will last your lifetime and then some, I'd add that one to your steed.

Today I deprimed, trimmed, chaffed, measured, washed, then tumbled (still tumbling the last 75) 150 7mm MAG cartridges - ready to load. I learned a few things: reloading rifles rounds is tedious, large primer pockets are not fun to clean, you can always tell good brass when you first pick it up, and don't wait to prep 150 hunting rounds - that took hours.

I also stripped the stock of my friend's 44 carbine, it has a large 4" crack that I am going to repair, though I did tell him to order another stock while they are still available. Should be a fun little side project.
