[QUOTE="Finley, post: 379715, member: 24259"] Velocity increase is only about 80-100 FPS since I went the AI route. I have several other 7mm-08's and wanted to do something different with this one. Case life has been excellent and I do like not having to trim the brass. The rifle in question is a 1st gen Remington TI with a factory 22" tube. I had the AI done 5 years ago. I am getting 2950 fps out of the 140 TSX with a max load of h414. I haven't put the 162 A max over the chrony yet so I don't know what the velocity of those are. I have only been shooting them for a few months but I am impressed with there accuracy and BC. I haven't shot them out past 350yds yet but will get to it here soon. I think if you like to handload and have something a little different I think the AI is a good way to go. For the casual hunter/shooter wouldn't be worth the effort. When the barrel goes out on this TI it will be replaced with another 7-08AI. Sitka Blacktail from last NOV. [IMG]http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w167/finley338/sheep/P1010469.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
