[QUOTE="Daveinjax, post: 811242, member: 48429"] Neck sizing only will get you past your problem and the Dakota should shoot fine but the rounded weatherby looking shoulder is odd. I have heard there are several different 40º Ackley dimensions out there and some may have a rounded shoulder. A full charge fire form casing should be fully formed so I think there is something wrong with the chamber or it's different 280 AI variation. I was thinking about this and it occurred to me that Dakota is part of Freedom Group. Thats the same people who have destroyed Remington and Marlin. My guess is you have a defective chamber. Hopefully since you paid so much for it they will take care of it but it's Freedom Group so they may declare it within specifications and stick you with it. [/QUOTE]
