[QUOTE="hypersonic, post: 587297, member: 5217"] Good choice with the 280 one of my fave cartridges. I have used it to kill mule and whitetail deer Black bear and moose. I like the 140 ab for deer and the 160 ab for bigger stuff. With 160 class bullets look to IMR 7828 the speeds you will get will suprise you in a 24" tube. Depends on how much weight you would want to haul around. If it was me I would go with the 26" sendero contour but I would not be carrying it around too much so I would not be too worried about weight. You can load over 58,000 psi as well in a bolt but not in a semi or a pump so the sammi listed pressure is a bit out of whack with what the case can handle in a modern bolt action rifle in good working condition. Oh boy are you going to like that 280 [/QUOTE]
