Re: 243 ackley

Find a smith to rechamber and get your dies... thats the cheap way.

Find a smith and get a custom barrel, new stock, all new compnants and tacti"cool" stuff and have them rebuild your rifle...That the expensive way.

LOL Russ, that's about the truth.

My smith charges ~80$ to setback/rechamber to AI.

Are you asking about brass?

You just fireform 243 Win, and you magically have AI brass.

What he said.Just an FYI though.You can safely shoot 243win ammo out of a 243ai chamber.Then you'll have fireformed brass.
