[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2728628, member: 116181"] 243 AI I put false shoulders on instead of jamming the bullet, there's a lot of movement up front taking the taper out of the parent case here. Necked up with a Wilson 257 "new" mandrel, slid the right size bushing down about half the neck - it was crushed pretty hard on bolt close. Moly grease from a syringe on the lugs and ran them through. Not something I'd mess with on a 223 or 30-06, but the 243 improvement is pushing on a 10% increase in case capacity compared to more like 6% for the 223. Got a very tight seal and no carbon past the false shoulder.
