[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 482295, member: 2736"] Tell your Smith that you want to shoot factory 280 ammo in it and he will head space it accordingly The only factory ammo for the 280 AI is nosler and I wouldn't use it (Cost to much, and accuracy is reported not to be to good. Use the Remington ammo or buy the Norma brass and reload it.(Winchester is sized to small to get good fire forming). The 280 AI SAMMI spec is a few thousandths longer for the AI so after head spacing with the 280 head space gauge you may have to set your dies to match your chamber.(No problem because it is only 2 or 3 thousandths. It is a great round and if set up correctly simple to load for. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
