[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 109440, member: 8843"] I have a 280Ai on the way right now , I plan to shoot 150gr Ballistic tips for deer and the 160gr Accu-Bond for anything bigger. From the data I have seen and folks I have talked to I think 3000fps with the 150-160 class bullets is do-able. My rig is going to have a 27" 3 groove Pac-Nor barrel. As for other options , I had a 30-06 AI for a long time and it was hard for me to go the rout of the 280 but the whole been their don that thing got me and several guys swore that I would be impressed with its performance on game. The old 06Ai accounted for alot of critters all of which fell to the only bullets that I hunted with out of it the good old 180gr Nosler Partition. the new short mags sure are nice though , the 300WSM and the 7mmWSM would both be great choices.
