[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 452112, member: 2736"] The 223 AI has approximately 7 to 8% more case capacity than the standard 223 adding 100 to 140 ft/sec of velocity to the 223 rem (This changes with bullet weight). After fire forming the brass, it is more stable and resists case growth minimizing case trimming. In grains capacity the difference is about 2.5grains +or - depending on the powder type. So if you want to shoot heaver bullets a 50 grain in the AI will compete with the 45 grain in a 223 rem. You can find loading data on Graymist's web site. It is a neat little round and easy to fire form by simply firing standard 223 rem in the AI chamber. Hope this helps. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
