[QUOTE="3006savage, post: 235345, member: 12069"] Jason only approx 75 FPS difference between the AI and 280Rem in a 22" barrel. The advantage to the AI is the brass works better (less streaching) and seems to handle pressure better. The AI in a 26" Shilen should get you 3000 fps with the 160 grain bullets. If you are thinking long range and are sticking with the 06 family of cases I would go with a 26" min barrel lenght to get max performance from that case. You are probably running a 22" factory barrel in your 06 now. Going to a match grade barrel, AI chambering, and 26" barrel should combine to significantly improve your ballistics. Additional benefits to staying with the 06 cases is the barrel life and no magazine feeding issues. PS: If you choose the 280 AI you can still shoot 280 Rem ammo in a pinch. [/QUOTE]
