The .30-06 is the parent for the 6.5-06 AI, Not the .280 Remington. The .280 Remington/.280 AI Neck Shoulder juncture and shoulder is not in the same place as a .30-06 or a Standard 6.5-06. That means that the finished shoulder is further out on a .280 AI than it is on a 6.5-06 AI and you need to go back to using necked down .30-06 or necked and trimmed .270 Win (which is what I use) and then fire-form the stuff.
