220 russian ??

is anyone shooting a 220 Russian, like the Lapua brass that we make into ppc brass? How does it shoot and what bullets and powder?
 
A few years ago, George Kelbly, of Kelbly Rifles, used a .220 Russian for the Super Shoot......he didn't win, but had a respectable finish. Gene Beggs , the maker of the the Beggs wind indicator, has taken the case and slightly modified it to minimize the parent case stretching problem. He owns a shooting tunnel and offers a stock of his own design and I believe reamers for the 220 Beggs and 6 mm Beggs.
Most of this info was listed in the archives of this site....but I couldn't find them.
The cartridge must have great potential for him to invest such time and effort.
