[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2961564, member: 1951"] Don’t get me wrong. 30-06, 7mm Rem Mag, 264 win mag, 270 Winchester are all great rounds. When you can buy something beltless, faster twist, steeper shoulder’s, higher head height, why would you buy the old cartridge. 7 rm is a great round in terms of case volume matching to bullet size. I would suggest 280ai in 9 twist or faster, 7 PRC or 6.8 Western, but you know that. If I were building a custom, I’d probably do 280 ai or 270 win with longer freebore and 8 twist. …..I’m just making the point, when buying a new factory rifle, why buy an old school cartridge.
