[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 557847, member: 12282"] OK, ?? for the 6.5-06 AI fans: -- Am I correct that the blownout 6.5-06 AI will absolutely not chamber in a 25-06? -- The 6.5-06 AI come close to 264 Win Mag right? And exceeds the 6.5/284 by 100-200 fps in most bullet weights? -- The fatter case in the AI, plus the more severe shoulder will at least theoretically affect magazine and feeding. Any experience about ammount and modifications to the existing 25-06 magazine and feed rails? I did some more reading and the 6.5-06 AI sounded attractive in many ways. A little more omph than the 6.5-284 and I happen to have about 500 rounds of 25-06 brass, 250 of which are new unfired........ I would be looking at potentially at having GA Precision truing the action, working the bolt, putting a Bartlein barrel at at least 26", in heavy sporter sort of weight, no more than 28" Might go 27" just cause I cannot decide.... I really want max accuracy, in a carry weight rifle. I know, cannot have everything in this world, but never hurts to try.... [/QUOTE]
