[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 3059017, member: 68015"] Of the 5 ai's that i have, all shot amazing with forming loads and you could hunt with those loads and waste nothing while forming the cases. You should not have to seat bullets into the rifling to hold the case back against the boltface if it was properly headspaced as per PO Ackley. Manson headspace gauges have the .004" crush fit made into them. I am waiting on a 244ai barrel now and checked my manson gauge and it does have that made into it. It turns out I already have plenty of 6mm rem brass made into 257ai so I just need to neck it back down to 6mm. Forming already done. I'm using a Redding body die with a Lee collet die which works great. I use a LE Wilson chamber type seater. Just waiting on the barrel to get here. Its an 8 twist, 23" [/QUOTE]
