[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 2031730, member: 13732"] My only concern with this "ultra creed" as the smith calls it, your neck ends up short, but so does an AI. The creed case trim length is 1.910 and the the total neck length in the chamber is 0.295, the 260 rem has neck of 0.260 long. After forming I bet you'll lose another 5k. So you're going to have short ish neck in a long ish chamber. That leaves area for carbon rings to build. If a guy were to say shoot some 260 rem brass 3 times without trimming and then form them into this chamber, it would be great. Maybe I'm over thinking it. I have an extra 6.5mm 8tw barrel in the safe, I'm very tempted to have my Tikka setup with the deep creed chamber set with about 250k freebore and run the long action magazine. That way the 143/147/150/156 bullets are out the powder space. [/QUOTE]
