[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 177251, member: 7"] Make sure to check the chamber length on your rifle... the 06 case is 2.494", and the 280 Rem is 2.540". Make sure that you don't pinch the bullet at the step of the mouth. Also... the neck/shoulder on the 6.5-06 is 2.175". The neck shoulder for the 280 AI is also 2.175", so you will have to set back the shoulder about 15 thou for the smaller neck size. But the biggest thing is that most shooters don't think Nosler brass is so good. Depending on who you talk to, it is made by either Hornady, or Winchester... is it worth the premium price?? I don't know any serious shooters that are using it. I would fire form the cases from 30-06 Lapua brass. Much more better brass. . [/QUOTE]
