[QUOTE="woodnut, post: 3069115, member: 17593"] P.O. Ackley was a very smart guy! I believe he realized the straighter case with the 40' shoulder was a better design to give about 100fps increase in velocity, less bolt thrust, and longer case life. You could also fire factory ammo in an A.I. chamber, which is how you fireform them anyway. I wonder if Hornady guys thought about Ackley when they came out with the Creedmoor rounds as they are very close to his thinking. I have several A.I. rounds, but one is very interesting. P.O. did NOT like the 223 so he never made a 223A.I., but I have one. This round gives me a 300 fps increase to 3600fps with a 55gr. bullet! Yes, that's right. It is a very, very accurate AR15 and a Cooper rifle. [/QUOTE]
