243 AI-Any Input?

Thanks for the detailed write up. The comment about the standard chamber vs AI was interesting and something I have been considering. My load right now is pushing a 108ELDM just over 3000fps with H1000 in a 24" barrel, so I'd likely be around the 2900 as well cut down to 20". Lack of trimming would be cool, not sure if it's worth the extra work of an AI. Seems like if a guy was going to do the extra work why not chase the extra speed with a SAUM/PRC wildcat. All things to consider.

How many grains of H1000 is that load? The load I'm using now is 47.7 grains. Went quite a bit higher, but got clickers and even an ejector mark on the Alpha brass.

49.3 in virgin Starline brass got me 3014 fps across 10 shots.
