[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 585777, member: 13833"] There have been a few threads on the forum where this was talked about but in a nutshell, it is the same case as the A.I. based on the .270 or .280. The body has less taper, the shoulder moved forward and maintains the 40 degree angle. It has a good neck length (.300") in the 6.5). Case capacity is increased by 11% over a std. .270/.280 case and is about 4% greater than a 6.5 A.I. Accuracy is very good and velocity is the most you can get out of a .470" case size. Barrel life is also very good. I have 1300 rounds thru mine and can see no loss in accuracy as yet. Case forming is not difficult and Hornady has the spec for custom dies. I have the reamer.......Rich [/QUOTE]
