[QUOTE="pmh-usa, post: 795033, member: 25707"] What will be your starting overall cartridge length? Bullet seating depth makes a big difference as to practical/safe case capacity. Standardized length (SAAMI) for an factory 30-06 is 3.340" but as the Ackley Improved is non-standard you can throat and load any length that will seat in your mag box, feed in your action, and still allow the bullet to be seated in the case neck. I'm hesitant to make recommendations unless I'm comfortable that one receiving them understands these ramifications. My 30-06AI loads in 165 grain are 3.365" which is 20 thousandths of the lands of my rifle. What is your maximum length and what will OAL will you start out with? [/QUOTE]
