[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 708977, member: 25383"] Just saw a couple bags of 100 cases each (used) go for $45 a piece! Looked like nickel plated brass too. One of the best 25 bore rounds I ever saw for what it was is the .250AI. It'll push a 100 grain bullet close to 3200fps with a max load in a 24" barrel; so they claim anyway. I don't doubt 3100fps as my 6/250AI will push 105 grain bullets to about 3100fps max load. That .250 load was 43 grains of 4350. Have only seen two of them, and both were redone .250 Remington 700's. Myself I'm a big proponet of the 6mm Remington. Just love that round. But have grown kinda fond of the this 6/250AI (needs some slight revisions in the case design to make it a super cartridge.). When I do my barrel set back next spring I plan on setting it up to use .243 cases (already do anyway) with about a .33" neck length. I'll use a 6mmAI reamer that I'll ream the chamber for the 6/250AI head space. Hope to see another 750 to 800 rounds out of that barrel. Also been interested in the same 6mm improved round necked upto .257 (the longer necked version with a 2" length case. (would have to have a new reamer ground for this one) gary [/QUOTE]
