[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1531583, member: 69192"] Wow lots of information to process here, and a bit confusing?? And please what I am writing here is not in arguing, I am trying to understand this whole concept. From what I have read you make really nice custom rifles, so I believe that you know what about what you are writing here. I went to the Nosler web site, and got some dimensions from there. They are showing the datum point of the .280 Rem, from the [U][I]base of the cartridge to the shoulder/neck[/I][/U] @ being [B]2.199[/B] and the datum point for the .280 AI (SAAMI) @ [B]2.182[/B] = .017 making the .280 AI (SAAMI) shorter by .017 thousandths than the .280 Rem.. Are the dimensions in Nosler's web site incorrect? What you have written is that the datum point for the .280 Rem @[B] 2.1924[/B] and the datum point for the .[B]280 AI (SAAMI)[/B] @ [B]2.172[/B] = .0204 thousandths difference. I do not have the dimensions for the straight .280 Ackley Improved so cannot make any more determinations other than what is written. Is the .280 ACKLEY IMPROVED (original Ackley) reamer the same reamer that a smith would use to chamber the .280 AI (SAAMI) only the chamber is .014 thousandths deeper on the original Ackley Improved?
