[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 834246, member: 2736"] There is nothing wrong with the Nosler brass. It is just a different size than the 280 and the "Old" 280 AI and if you chamber and head space with the New SAMME Spec go gage by Nosler you should shoot only the Nosler ammo in it. If you head space the new 280 AI chamber with the Old 280 head space go gage you can shoot all brands of 280 rem in it (It is easy to buy ammo and the performance is identical) Nosler , like every other company changed the case head to shoulder to neck length so you would/should buy there ammo. I am a big fan of Nosler but you have to be aware that the head space is different between the two, (There was no SAMME spec for the 280 AI so they changed it and submitted the new dimensions to SAMME for approval and that is what it is now) The reamer can no longer make there reamers to the old 280 spec. But they can make the "Old" 280 go Gage. This is just a suggestion but look at the SAMME spec for the 280 Rem and then Look at the New SAMME spec for the 280 AI and you will see what I am talking about. All of the 280 AI I have built can use any of the 280 brass as is and most shoot sub 1/2 moa during fire forming. Just a suggestion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
