[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1403014, member: 12995"] The .30-06 AI is way more than .3 grains of H2O capacity increase...Sounds like somebody screwed up typing or proof-reading. I won't tell you my powder charge but formed brass, 7828 SSC, Fed 210M primers, and a Berger 185 VLD seated .015" off the lands is getting me right around 3,000 FPS from a 26" .30-06 AI. That's a pretty solid gain over the standard old Springfield. But if you want a truly huge performance increase over a standard .30-06, build a .300 Sherman. It's based off the .270 Win case, with the neck opened up to .30 caliber. It's like you took a .30-06 AI and improved it again by pushing the shoulder farther forward, and keeping the 40º shoulder.
