[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1690395, member: 69192"] [I]"I think the 280ai is cooler but the 7rm has much more factory ammo support. The goal is to raise money for the camp so I guess the question is which do you think would appeal to more folks?" [/I] I know that your OP is looking for some direction, however if it were me I think that I would take in to consideration the audience where the rifle is going to be raffled off to help make that decision. If you know the audience that makes cartridge choices easy, if not [B]Glen J Voth's [/B]recommendation of offering the winner the option for caliber is a good idea IMHO. As another reply on here stated, I'd be happy with either cartridge as in my opinion other than the .280AI being a new designer cartridge I think they are both in the same league. I believe that the 7mm RemMag is ranked the 5th popular selling cartridge on the market. As I'm writing this post the thought occurred to me that your action is not a magnum bolt face so another consideration when making the build; modifying the bolt and feed rails for the magnum round?? P.S.: kudos to you for supporting the bible church. [/QUOTE]
