[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 812539, member: 1290"] Neck splits are common in any caliber when the brass is not annealed properly whether it be new brass or reloads. Anneal the necks and the issue will go away. An Ackley must be done with a proper Ackley gauge and I like it tight on it because new brass is commonly up to .010" short. The bolt halfway down on a go is not .004" It's more like .001" I prefer the 6mmAI. It no more of a barrel burner than any other gun of this performance level. in my opinion the plain 243 Win is a dog. I would set it back one turn and turn it into a 6mmAI if it was mine. A longer barrel like 26 or 28 will really make it run. [/QUOTE]
