Sorry guys, been having fits with my back and been trying to catch up at work so I can get to Reno before heading to Vancouver.

SDH,
I'm going to try to make it in Thursday evening, but that is according to Alaska Airlines schedule, which these days could mean some Thursday next June... sigh.

I'm hoping to be out and about Friday, at SCI and ACGG. Hope its not to late to arrange to buy you your choice of poison sometime Friday or Saturday. I head to Vancouver Sunday morning.

Josh,
I'll see if Ralf has your barrel there and if anyone has a vice. Wonder if a guy recovering from back surgery with a pipe wrench, a cheater bar, a torch and vice can put a kink in a match grade barrel???

I'll buy you a Lone Star if I can't and a Shiner Boch if I can!

I bet SDH can put a nice Weatherby monte carlo cheekpiece on that piece of Turkish for you at no charge at the show. Not sand, only rough hewn, of course...
