[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 1693640, member: 99519"] Been reading this since the first day of post.... It's actually a tough decision in my head....i have owned a few 7rm in various rifles...and yes..they shoot..killed a bull at 346yds..shot him in the ear..darn near lost him in the sage because his head spun around under his body.....stumbled upon him....then stumbled out with the packs after dark with dead flashlite....(dont try thus at home...the sage was tall enough to hide massive boulders in the moonlite.....) Good cartridge...no doubt...wow factor....not really any longer..been out a long time...factory loads or handloads... 280ai....got one....shoots good...hqvent killed anything but paper with it...pack rifle...will definitely get the job done as well as the 7rm in range... I rather like the cartridge because of its uniqueness....as will others...probably same reason i got mine....to have and to hold on occassion til death or budget do us part..... Handloads and factory available.... The biggest difference i see is cost of factory ammo.... 280ai is more expensive...but will time drop the price....doubtful... I say go 7bm......lol.... No...not really.... 280ai....unique...shoots and handles well in lighter weight rifles.... After all..making this rifle and giving it away...is Obviously your way of trying to keep the heritage going.... [/QUOTE]
