Great point about the costs. How much are you paying for diesel these days?



The 06 has BuffaloBore 168 gr lead free Barnes TTSX moving at nearly 3,000 FPS. Supposed to be able to knock down anything in N. America.

Diesel is $1.65/Litre this morning. I believe it will be going up another .17 April 1 due to federal carbon tax and provincial tax. Hotels and food are generally more expensive in Canada as well. I have travelled several times across the prairies during my time as I grew up in Southern Ontario. I prefer the US route.

Your bullet choice will work fine. I like heavier bullets but my point really is to get a decent bullet. I had a friend try 225 gr Ballistic tips on a bear because they were the only ones that shot well out of his 338. I hate looking for bears in the dark…
