    Anyone with .243 Ackley Improved experience?

    Just bought a Kleinguenther/Voere K15 chambered in .243 AI. I have a lot of regular 243 dies and such and wonder if I can use a regular die for just neck sizing (doesn't look like it)? I was told I...

    I'll leave it as is. Barrel is stamped "30-06 PMVF converted by VARD pasadena" Hate to have to scratch that out and add 300 H&H even though 300 H&H is on my dream list.
