I've got a possibility at purchasing a 300 Ackley and am looking for some input or feedback on it being as I don't have any knowledge of it other than it's basically a 300 Weath with the shoulders pushed out to 40 deg.

I am new to the forum, as well as long reange shooting. I am working in Williamsport, Pa., near the Bodine's 1000 yard range, and have purchased the aforementioned 300 Ackley Improved in order to shoot there. My man also lost the dies. He did have 50 loaded rounds, as well as 50 preped cases. How does one obtain the needed dies? Can a gunsmith mike what I have, and machine 300 Weatherby dies in order to do the job?
