Quesnel will be there.

I hope to be there, if things go as planned.
I have two now and one in progress all 3 chambered in "243 Win Ackley".
Now to get back to fireforming!

Take care, see you there. Bill
 
Always good to have new toys to play with. I am going to try a factory Tikka in 270 WSM with 140gr. Bergers in the hunter class.

Lr 270

I've wondered why this caliber 270 hasn't shown it's true ability in long range? It's always been a lack of quality LR, high ballistic bullets. The berger bullets may start some thing new.

Bill what about trying some of Dale's {Chinchaga} 270 match bullets he makes.
I've used his 6mm & 6.5 bullets and very pleased with the results.

I was hoping to suprise you guys this year with a 375 Cheytac on the firing line.
Jerry Stillers supply of TAC 408 actions are still in the build stage and will not be ready for this years shoot.
Oh well, there is always next years shoot.

Hi R C, Dales 270 cal match bullets should be very good. I've shot his 6mm and 6.5mm match and they are every bit as accurate as the Bergers match.
Now onto my fireforming again 243 ackley, I've come to the conclusion the cream of wheat method is best, easy on barrels and the birds are happy at the end of the day. It's Bullseye, C of W, and a topping of wax. I won't go into details about the powder but just enough to correctly form the brass.
Bill.
