What barrel length? Maybe I missed that somewhere.
Be interested to hear how fast she goes.
With ordinary unimproved .243s having published load data over 4000 fps with 55 grain bullets of conventional construction, I'm sure your long barreled AI shooting hammers ought to hit 5000
. But seriously, do let us know, 4250 won't surprise me

Will you be using this on whitetail? Years ago myself and a friend shot lots of deer with our 243's and a 55 gr hollow point Hornady. Very explosive, but killed well if shot in the ribs. I'm thinking it should work great with the 55 HH. The 55 HH has been tempting me for my 6 dasher, but I think I'll try the 75 HHT first.

I just got all the stuff for a 25 Gibbs....
Yes Sir that's the plan
I spend a couple hours in them every time I'm in your neck of the woods workin. I've purchased several of those kits over the years. Wonderful gifts for the in-laws.
Wish we had rural kings down south

7.5 twist for a 55 grain? Just looking into the future?
Savage in 110 or 10 will suffice! Their floating bolt is to love! The PITA rem700's cost to square/blueprint at a cost of 3 or more Savage actions. You can still shoulder the barrel, but why! If you're on the fence, go with Zermatt and have rem footprint and barrel nuts. I'm sure you already know about this stuff in your @ButterBean 'ie ways 
. Many have mentioned to say no too 338lm in savages, but unsure about 300nm or other 30cal with. 595 bolt faces? Neck down a 6.5prc to a 6mil and have fun (6saum & 6rem mag possibly). I couldn't be more happy with the small amount of tools it takes for the 10/110's. I would have everything I own in a pre'64 style if it were easy to customize and almost toolless to do. 1 pre and 1 post 64, both in 264wm ('61 & '16 or '17)..
