[QUOTE="X3MHunter, post: 297670, member: 18756"] +1 on the 280 Ackley Improved. It has ballistics close to the 7mm Mag. with less powder and less recoil, and it headspaces off the sholder, not the belt! Another plus for the 280 AI is that you can buy brass from Nosler, no fireforming needed! Mine is built on a Rem. 700 action with a 26" 1:8 Bartlein barrel and a H-S Stock. It really likes the 160 Nosler Accubonds, it shoots under 1/4MOA, great shooting rifle. It also likes 175 MatchKings. But I would try to make the factory barrel shoot first, not uncommon to get 3/4 MOA or better. Then consider rebarreling. X3M [/QUOTE]
