[QUOTE="BRIT, post: 420109, member: 8951"] Gents Wow. Thank you very much for the very detailed answers and for taking the time to help me out. Must have taken some typing time for which i am very gratefull. Just a couple more questions if it`s not rude to take more of your time please. If,as i said, the 30-06AI gauge at 2.0773" is used to headspace a 25-06AI that should be 2.1127" then the chamber will on the tight side? Would the resulting 2.0773" chamber accept a factory 25-06 rem cartridge for fireforming? I am not sure of the headspace dimensions of SAAMI produced ammo. Also why do the two Ackleys mentioned have different headspace dimensions when they both share essentially the same parent cartridge? I have looked at some case drawings for both 25-06 and 30-06 and it would seem that the only difference is the neck diameter, all other dimensions being identical. I hope these questions make sense. Thanks again for your time. BRIT. [/QUOTE]
