[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1662491, member: 24284"] Ackley recommended firing ammo (the parent cartridge) in his improved chamber to "make" improved cases. The corn meal thing is relatively a new thing. I don't believe you would gain much, if anything, by re-chambering, except the ability to buy off-the-shelf ammo. I would just re-load for the RCBS if it was me. If I determined fire-forming was safe in my rifle, that is how I'd form the RCBS cases. I have been chambering and shooting "Improved" cases for 30yrs. I've always fire-formed with loaded ammo. Your rifle needs to be checked to determine if fire-forming in the conventional Ackley manner is safe in your rifle. Lots of "improved" chambers out there, cut in various ways by various people with various ideas and skill levels. [/QUOTE]
