Sherman wildcat stuff!

It's a RUM based cartridge.

U'll love it in Logan. The mtns west of there are steeper than thee Alps... I'm thinking they'd make a great backstop.

If its rum based we could build any of the SS designs including 270.
Backstop yes, climbing them, no!

Pretty well, 64g of RL22 and a Berger 130CH is a good gong banger and deer dropper!!

Hi guys,
I will be moving to northern Utah next week but will keep the same e-mail and phone #, at least for the time being. If any of you need anything, I will try to keep up, but it will be, and has been, a little hectic, so hang in there. I will be in the Salt Lake area temporarily, but plan on roosting in the Logan area (Cache Valley) as soon as we find a home. Until then, if you see "ELKAHOLIC" on a cardboard sign along an on ramp, be kind!.......Rich

Rich,
You have my phone number. If you have problems of any kind call me. I mean it.
You will love Cache Valley. Growing to fast but the mountains are a great retreat and they are close. Look forward to having you here. When you get settled in I can show you some of areas in the mountains.

Be safe.
