300 ackley improved

[TkeeneMT]

Any have the capability to do the reloading for 300 ackley? I have a 30-06 IA and am wanting some 300 ackley rounds

Are you looking for a different cartridge than the 30-06 AI as in 300 Ackley magnum based off the 300 H&H but also can use 300 weatherby brass or are you calling the 30-06 AI a 300 Ackley?

How much case volume do you want? 300 Norma or 300 Lapua improved or just run a Norma or Rum in a non improved case, still big 30 cals.

My 30-06 AI can shoot 300 ackley. I just only have 6 300 ackley rounds don’t have the reloading stuff

Either you're mistaken or the 300 ackley you're talking about is different than what I believe most people think when they hear 300 Ackley - which is 300 ackley magnum that can be made out of 300 H&H or 300 weatherby brass and isn't working in anyone's 30-06 AI.

How is the 300 Ackley you're talking about different from a 30-06 AI?

Is there a company that makes 30-06 ai ammo for you since you don’t reload? I guess I’m lost on your 3006 ai shooting 300 ai!

I’ve shot 300 ackley out of my 30-06 AI but you have to take the spent casings to reload

Please explain what you mean by 300 Ackley. If you can't explain what exactly a 300 ackley is and how it differs from a 30-06 Ackley Improved, I see zero chance of you being happy with what you get when you try to buy "300 Ackley" ammo from someone.

With a quick google search of "300 Ackley" all the results i see are for 300 ackley magnum which is a case slightly larger than 300 weatherby. You are not sticking such a case in a 30-06 AI chamber. It's not happening. The case would not come close to fitting in the chamber not to mention the case head doesn't fit in a standard 30/06 bolt face.

I inherited the gun. Don’t have it with me but pretty sure I was told it shot 300 ackley. You’re probably right I’ve never done much research on it. I have no real use for it for where I hunt and what I hunt. Waiting on a pic for the ammo I got with it.

I shoot a couple 300 Ackleys and have the reloading dies from Redding. I also have chambered a dozen rifles for this particular cartridge.

To get proper 300 Ackleys, the easiest is to fireform a downloaded/jammed 300 Wby ammo in a 300 Ackley chamber. I have a couple 3/4 MOA "fireform" loads with 200gr Accoubonds and RL25 that form the 300 Ackely nicely without undo pressure levels. You can also shoot 300 H&H loads or factory ammo in a 300 Ackely chamber to do the same as above. But finding H&H brass is tough.

That was the original intention in PO Ackley's books was to use 300 H&H brass to form a 300 Ackley

A 30/06 Ackley I have never heard of being mistaken for a "300 Ackley" but i guess it could be until you try to put a 30/06 case into a 300 Ackley chambered rifle or visa versa.

The safest thing i would recommend is to have your chamber cast at a local gunsmith. Very simple and relative cheap. This will give you exactly what it is.
