    To be fair, for some random reason, the god of barrel velocity wouldn't let me get more from a full length T3 6.5x55 barrel .

    Utterly no need to go AI, unless you are running a full length barrel.

    what powder are you using and in what rifle?
    i have a sako85 and will reload for it next year.
    Dead is better and Smiddy like this.
