I read a lot of P O Ackley's writings over the years & also recall him mentioning this, think it may be in his two volume reloading manual. Not sure but, Roy Dunlap may have also mentioned it in his book "Gunsmithing". I do note though that Kutter did say he "Re-Barreled" the M-97 to .30-06. Quite obviuously a 12 or 16 ga cannot be "Re-Chambered" to an '06.
