[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1454916, member: 101755"] I have a Colombian Mauser 1957 with a ER Shaw 26" SS barrel chambered in 6.5-06 (not AI though) that nearly reaches 264wm velocity with R-26. Because of the 1:9 twist I've only shot 130's or lighter through it. I own 270win and 25-06 rifles so I tend to only use 30-06 brass to keep the confusion down. I have never turned a neck, nor had a case get stuck...yet! Sweet shooter that's for sure. I have one more Savage action sitting in the safe waiting on a barrel. I'm leaning hard towards the 6.5-06 for it. But I sure miss my old 280 Remington...of course have dies for both...but have not made the final call on which one yet?!?!? [/QUOTE]
