[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1411495, member: 12995"] The .280 AI has been one of my favorites for nearly 2 decades, and always wanted one, but still have yet to build one. I have been shooting/hunting with the 7mmRM for over 16 years. Both are exceptional cartridges. The .280 AI does better with the 168-175 grain or lighter bullets. The 7mmRM will shine over the .280 AI with the 180 and heavier bullets. Less recoil - [COLOR=#ff0000]True[/COLOR] Better case life - [COLOR=#ff0000]False, both cartridges can get good case life[/COLOR] No belt - [COLOR=#ff0000]Belted or not makes no difference if you know how to properly reload ammo[/COLOR] Fit 5 in the mag - [COLOR=#ff0000]True[/COLOR] Close to 7RM ballistics - [COLOR=#ff0000]True, but still not quite.[/COLOR] ;) [/QUOTE]
