[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 329504, member: 704"] SDMF Dewey rods and high doses of prednisone don't mix well. I picked up a new 6.5 caliber Cooper Phoenix and couldn't wait to get it going. At the time I had pneumonia and was on 80mg of prednisone. Chemicals had swelled the coating on my Dewey rod and I was unaware of it. The rod diameter new was small enough for 6.5, but after years more it was to large diameter. On prednisone I should never buy anything over a dollar or use any tools. What I thought was a tight patch was in reality an over sized rod. My wife came into my gun room about 3:00am and said buy a new barrel in the morning. By that time my fingers looked like Oscar Myer whiners because no knuckles were evident. Evidently I'm also a poor shot with a rubber mallet while on prednisone. The factory was unable to remove the rod and the new barrel cost $442. I dont know why, but they would not give me my old barrel back. [/QUOTE]
