    That is a good range of calibres, something for everyone.

    Not sure, maybe AI my 7-08 but not sure if it would be worth it with a 22" barrel? Can you ream it as is, or would a new barrel be required?
    Maybe 243AI or always thought a 6.5x55AI could be fun ( how available are dies?)

    Dies are easy for most AI's. 7-08AI is one of the lowest gain Ackleys of the lot (supposedly) but they look cool regardless.

    Dies are easy, an can bump forward your 7mm08 now to ai to easy enough. They do look cool like James says, not sure much gain on the 7mm08 tho but would be a little the 270 an 6.5-06 are ment to be the worst in gains ment to go back.

    Still developing a load, but getting 2960 with 140 Amax and 3030 with 130 scirocco out of a 24" bl
    I haven't found max yet with either, using RL-17
    AI's don't show pressure like a bottle neck. Primers are mint and I am on 6-7 loads per case working up to what charge I am at now.
