Read an artickle or two on some of the things Ackley covered such as headspacing, etc. My question is: Is this a cartridge type on its own? Meaning, for my Tikka T3 in .22-250, can I shoot AI in that caliber in my rifle, or does it need to be a rifle designed specifically for AI? If not, please explain reloading changes other than just purchasing AI dies from, say RCBS. I saw the special order flier that accompanied my RCBS catalog, and some of these dies will definately say AI 30 degree, while others list just a degree figure. I only own a 7mm-08 and '06 both in Remington, and the 3rd rifle is the Tikka in .22-250. Can these be used to shoot AI loads? What are the benefits and/or pitfalls aside from $$ that happen with any type of change over from standard cartridges to the AI? So many questions, and like always, I appreciate all feedback. School starts now....
