 It's better to have Handi-flu Rather than H1N1
 It doesn't make you as sick.  Datil

.308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to, .308 is bad, won't do anything you want it to.

Keep telling yourself that, maybe you'll believe it if you say it enough (none of us do). 

Just doing what I can to try to help you out. 

BTW, do you already have a load in mind for your new 308 shorty?

OBXpilgrim,

I found the only cure besides buying one is time.  You have to try and out wait yourself until the fever is overcome.  As for a load, I plan on shooting factory loads.  If it will still shoot 150gr around 2500-2600.  I feel this is plenty for white tail.  I mostly want the gun for hunting in my shoot house.  I never can get the gun out the window without making a loud bump.

Not only is the Handi Flu safer for you it's also cheaper. I got bacterial pnumonia and what they thought was H1N1 from work about a month and a half ago. The ER bill alone was over 1400.00 plus the meds to treat H1N1 is around 150.00. I am so glad I have insurance. Still trying to get them to Workers Comp it though. Well good luck with the .308 it might not be here yet, but it's coming.
