[QUOTE="Clark, post: 961642, member: 6600"] I just ordered my second AI reamer, after 12 years. I have only killed 4 deer with the 257 Roberts AI, so I am no expert, but I have gone to the range with it a dozen times. Fire forming can be trouble if the headspace is not .004" tighter than non AI. In that case I put a few grains of pistol powder in the case and cover it with cream of wheat. I fire it pointed straight up. That makes enough shoulder to stand up against the firing pin. My new reamer will be a 250 Krag AI. I build about 20 rifles for every Ackley I build. I use Forster dies on the .257, and I will be using custom RCBS on the 250. [/QUOTE]
