[QUOTE="Crane, post: 351280, member: 5144"] I agree the 3600 is extremely fast for the 25-06AI. I tried several different powders and was unimpressed with the performance. Tried IMR7828SSC and saw immediate improvement. Worked through different weights and backed off when I experienced some signs of pressure i.e. sticky bolt and slight flattening primers. The load I settled showed no signs of excess pressure and was acceptably accurate (load development continues); although from what I read Ackley rounds seem to manifest pressure in different ways. I'm anxious to chrono the load because when working at ranges from 100 yds to 500 yds the data indicates right around 3600 fps; yeah I was suprised myself. Only the chronograph will tell the truth in the end. I believe it was JMason that turned me on to seating the Accubonds 20 thousands off the lands, it really did the trick in my rifle. [/QUOTE]
