[QUOTE="JayR, post: 453548, member: 27573"] I am in the early stages of another build, trying to decide on a long or short action. But can not decide on a caliber, so far I have decided it will be something in .284 and this is going to be, what I think, a perfect all around gun. Moderate weight, 7-8ish lbs. 24" barrel. A gun, if I had to take one, I could carry for deer and elk and would feel comfortable out to 500 yds. I have a long barreled STW for anything beyond that, it just too heavy and long to carry. SO my question is, please give me the pros and cons of .280 remington AI, 7wsm and the good old 7 Remington mag. I reload, so factory ammo is no issue, but fire forming the AI cases would seem to be a pain. Your thoughts and input are appreciated. [/QUOTE]
