6 BR Ackley Improved

[JR]

Has anyone ever played with a 6BR AI, that is a regular 6BR with a 40 degree shoulder? It would not get much more velocity than a standard 6BR but it should be more efficient and maybe a bit more accurate. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Jay Winfield

Doug played with many different mods before he landed on this one.

James - Thanks I saw that excellent report on the 6BR-DX. However it is really not a true Ackley Improved as the shoulder has been moved ahead .039". What I am asking about is where the neck remains the same but the shoulder has been improved to 40 degrees and the body straightened.

Thanks, jay

JR,
I am shooting a 6BRX, it is a 6br that has it's shoulder blown out .100, but keeps the 30 dregee shoulder. you can use standard 6 BR dies. It runs about the same speeds as the others - 3000 f/s.
