[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1349075, member: 12995"] Like was stated, the '06 sized case is very often underrated in today's society, where everyone wants magnums because of the whole "bigger is always better" philosophy. The .280 AI is an awesome cartridge, and one of my personal favorites. 168 VLD's or Elite Hunters would be about the perfect combination of weight and velocity. But I will tell you this, most .30-06 ammo is for 180-class, so I wouldn't see you losing too much velocity with going with Berger 175 Elite Hunters. If you have a 1:8 twist, I would also try the new Berger 195 Elite Hunters. [/QUOTE]
