[QUOTE="Schw15, post: 2785793, member: 123999"] I had a lot of ackleys and I found jamming the bullet into the lands to hold the brass in place with a medium load from partent case is best. I usually buy cheaper bullets and just shoot them if the Barrel is new so I can break the barrel in and fireform all the brass. If it's 270 ai my dad shoots one pretty cool case. Virgin 270 brass should close a little harder than normal if set up right. If not it's not a huge deal that's why I jam the bullets. Just watch for case head separation to make sure head space is set it proper. I personally wouldn't ever have a ackley again just more of a process. Only ackleys I'd have is the ones that come ready like 280 ai ect. [/QUOTE]
