[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1352009, member: 1656"] If you are set on the 25-06, I typically recommend the AI version if the dies are not an issue for you. For one thing, say goodbye to trimming brass. I reload for friends shooting straight 243s, those stretch more than any other round I've loaded for. I shoot a 243AI, I have yet to need to trim after initial forming. I'm only on the fourth brass loading but I expect without the trimming I'll toast the barrel with the initial set of brass. And as long as you don't have a tight neck, you can still shoot factory 25-06 ammo. In my experience, there is no downside to fireforming loads. They can still be slightly superior in velocity to the parent and give up nothing in accuracy (in my experience). [/QUOTE]
