I have a barrel blank from Lilja I have at least six different actions that will be fine.
I have the reamer from PTG, I have the brass from Bell before they merged. I have the bullets from Woodleigh. Heck, I even have a stock that will work, just fine.
All left that is left is to do the work, and still I wonder why I ever got into this project?
I just don't feel the need I guess. I don't think it will kill anything here in Alaska any deader than one of my .375 H&H's.
What has changed my mind? A loss of my ammo by the air carrier for another wildcat rifle I flew out with on a hunt. Just try to find ammo in these tiny village stores that's will get you by. I can always find .375 H&H, 30-06, no problem.
I mentioned this yesterday when I talked to Ken Howell on the phone.
Getting screwed by air carriers here in Alaska is more common than not.
