[QUOTE="muleyman, post: 422296, member: 11540"] I agree with above about the costs, I think it will be higher than your numbers, however I think the 280AI is so close to the 7mm mag in ballistics that out to 800-1000 yards is do-able for large deer size game. If it's the only thing I had and the conditions were right it would more than likely get the job done on something slightly bigger. I have the pac-nor barrel in I believe the #4 contour, .650 at the muzzle but it's in a 26" tube. I don't have a break and really the recoil is so minimal I don't know if you really need it, if you want it, by all means put one on. Mine kicks to what I consider around a 20 gauge shotgun. It's really not bad. Definitely go with the 1-9 twist for the bullet weights your considering but you might think about going up to a 26" barrel. I think you'll be very happy with the caliber with whatever you decide to do........... [/QUOTE]
