[QUOTE="orch, post: 551124, member: 35688"] Hmmm....... If it has "25-06 AI" or "25-06 Ackley Improved" or "25-06 Improved" stamped on the barel it should fire factory 25-06 ammo.... Firing the factory dimension brass through the rifle on the first firing is how you make The brass into "Ackley Improved" brass.... If in doubt take it to a QUALIFIED smith and have them do a cast of the chamber and remove all doubt... Not saying the smith at cabelas is an idiot but........... Okay maybe I am.... my suspicion is the gun smith there is probably just the guy that knows how to mount scopes and boresite them and probably doesn't know s&!t when it comes to anything that is not bonestock factory that they are trying to hock to the less informed public.... Atleast that has been my experience as a patron at my local cabelas.... It seems everytime I go in there, IF I get to talk to someone at the gun counter the guys there remind me of a greasy carsalesman trying to tell me how the braking system on the car I am looking at will let me brake soooooooo much sooner because they are antilock brakes.... Freaking drives me nuts.... Sorry!..... Went off on a tangent there! Long story short... If it says 25-06 AI on the barel it should fire factory 25-06 rem ammo... Orch [/QUOTE]
