6mm AI?
I have a new rifle on the way and I am looking for loads specifically in the 85-90gr range. And before everyone tells me to go look at Mike J's angelfire page, I know where it is and have looked already. I'm looking for some NEW information. So what loads has everyone tried? Thanks.

You can use any data from the 6mm rem, use what is the maximum load as the starting load for your AI. Maximum load will be reached somewhere in the 2.5-5% over standard data depending on what standard the loading manual was loaded, many hold the pressures down do the 742 rem autoloaders that were chambered in 6mm. Be carefull as you work up, AI cases are famous for masking "normal" pressure signs until they are way beyond realistic maximum pressures. You must have a chronograph to safely work up your loads.
