[QUOTE="eshell, post: 163627, member: 5747"] There are other AI calibers that show more dramatic improvements for the hassle, but the .30-06 should still show 100 FPS or more increase. Whether that's "worth it" depends largely on whether you're enjoying yourself. As far as "ideal" barrel lengths, yes, a longer barrel would definitely help capitalize on the relatively small amount of extra case capacity, but, you would still show gains over a standard .30-06 in the same length barrel, the original goal of the exercise. I have a .30-06 AI myself, and have had excellent results with various 165s and IMR-4350. [/QUOTE]
