[QUOTE="mfk, post: 1601734, member: 100571"] I personally think you are on the right track. I went through the same decision between 7mm rm or 280ai and got a 280AI last fall. (I also kicked around faster 7's like 28 Nos.) Ultimately I chose the 280AI for a little more barrel life with a little less recoil (while not my main consideration) and because of its reputation for being easy to tune. Like you I like to shoot my hunting rifles a lot so a little less recoil and more barrel life is a nice bonus. LancetKenyon shoots both 7mm rm and 280AI a lot and convinced me not to sweat the decision telling me that I would like either. He has lots on info on both calibers and really seems to have his loads tuned pretty well. Good luck and enjoy. Its a fun problem to have picking a new caliber! [/QUOTE]
