[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 66245, member: 10"] 7Ultra, Personally I would go with the 280 AI myself. I really do not like moving shoulders around when fireforming. In a handgun barrel the ballistic performance will be basically identical. I have seen some listed data for JDJ loads that were very hard on brass and when toned down to where good case life was, they offered little over the AI rounds and are much harder to load for. Also, what do dies run for the 280 JDJ? You can get a set of Redding 280 AI dies for not much more then a standard set of dies. YOu will never see a difference in the field, they are much easier to load for and dies are much cheaper, I would go 280 AI all the way and never look back. Just me though!! Good SHooting!!
