[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 871030, member: 13110"] The head space is slightly different for a AI but it's also a wildcat so you can technically put the shoulder where ever you want it as long as you know that and adjust your dies accordingly. Necking brass up and then back down to create a false shoulder (to make the cases tight in the chamber) or seating a bullet into the lands for fireforming is all that needs to be done. One thing to think about also when rechambering is the neck diameter. In the case of your original question, if the neck diameter isn't larger on the Weatherby then you would have a stepped neck because the Weatherby is a longer case and will cut past the original chamber. Rechambering is better when the new cases body will clean up the existing chamber or another words going with a much longer case. [/QUOTE]
