You can shoot factory brass with very good accurssery in an AI chamber.
I myself have a higher case loss from neck and shoulder splits in this chambering them any other AI I have.
I was curious if your 25-06AI loads are close to max or not. The issue with neck and shoulders has me rethinking building on this cartridge now. On average how many reloads are you getting from your cases after fire forming with standard 25-06?
