[QUOTE="sambo3006, post: 155959, member: 2740"] +1 on that. If you were shooting lots of rounds and were concerned about case life, the AI should last longer due to less case stretching versus the original case with its generous body taper. That taper is also the reason that impressive performance gains can be had when going to the AI since case capacity is enlarged nicely. I also have a 22-250 that I would love to rechamber to AI but like catshooter said I also have everything set up for the regular version like you do. Plus it shoots tiny groups and I hate to mess with a good thing. If you rechamber to AI, you will just have to buy new dies and brass, not dirt cheap but not terribly expensive. Case forming should be easy and there are a couple of different ways. I form 30-06AI with the COW method and it is a snap. [/QUOTE]
