I took my old, shot out Rem 700 in 30-06 and had it rebarreled with a lightweight Lilja barrel with a 1:11 twist in 30-06AI. I tapped into the knowledge of a gent over on the Accuratereloading.com site. His handle is "Ackley Improved User". IMO, he's very knowledgable about the AI cartridges. He gave me a ton of data to include a few suggestions. I went with Rel 25; quite A-typical but wow. I was getting 3100 fps with Nosler 180 BT/AB's and great case life. I finally settled on a load that ran 3000 fps with 1/2 moa accuracty. Love the fact that case trimming is pretty much negated with the steep shoulder angle.
