[QUOTE="BWB, post: 973476, member: 65023"] I agree that it's likely different barrels making the biggest difference. I like to do all my fireforming in the "old" barrel, before installing the new. I double checked my book and the 50's out the 223AI are average of 3750, so just as close to 3700 as 3800. That was the cartridge I noticed the biggest change in. Since the OP didn't specify if he was reaming a barrel or buying new barrel for 243AI, I just posted my experiences. My bolt lift on all is fine, I've seen some pressure signs but ALWAYS back off. Brass life thus far has been great. [/QUOTE]
