[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 184354, member: 8843"] The 280 Ackley is a great long range gun , for deer the 162gr A-max will work great out to 1000yds and for Elk the 160gr Accubond will be good out to 600yds , you should be able to get close to 3000fps with a 26" barrel and the 160 class bullets , I have heard of guys getting over 3100fps with that but not sure about their pressures. Untill yesterday I was iffy about usinf the Berger bullets on game at long range but they worked great on to deer I shot running the 140gr 6.5's at 2850fps one deer shot through the shoulders at 944yds and one in the neck at under 500 so you can get better BC bullets with the Bergers.
