When rechambering from a 220 Swift to 220 Swift AI the shoulder needs to be bumped forward to get the proper headspace. I'm thinking the throat got eroded and they bumped the shoulder to clean it up. Great buy and great chambering, however when you pinch to ackley stuff, the barrel must be set back a tick to avoid excessive headspace. This rifle appears to be done correctly. Looks fun!

I don't think it is a 220 AI. I think it's the 220 Wby Rocket like Hrnhuntr stated. The rounded shoulder us a classic WBY shoulder.

I don't think it is a 220 AI. I think it's the 220 Wby Rocket like Hrnhuntr stated. The rounded shoulder us a classic WBY shoulder. No. The 220 Weatherby Rocket did not use the double radius Weatherby shoulder, instead it used a 33 degree shoulder. Suspect what's going on in this picture is that the fire forming load didn't fully form the shoulder, whether because of a light load or the brass not being a crush fit in the chamber.
