you probably have several pounds of the 1000, blend them all. Rock On!

R#22 and IMR 7828 are kissing cousins with the 22 liking cci 250s vs the IMR 7828 loving the fed 210s in the 280 and AI

160g Sierra btsp is magic pixie dust in the 280 and AI at 2900 + fps. The std 280 gets there with IMR 7828 Long cut with a federal 210...

I shot cows with a 243 Win with a hot load of IMR 4350 with 100g Partitions, close range of 125 yds and less. We rode mules and elk...

Shot placement is key...... but to compare a 7 mag. to a 6mm on a 1000 # animal is foolish..... I would definitely stay with more...

Also.. if you are loading both to same COAL... you will have lots of difference in base to ogive measurement because the ELD have longer...

I'm sure they do. As do the 140 and 147. With this 20" barrel I'm going to keep shooting 123s. Same as I use in the Grendel. I shot...

Use these in 6.5x284N for coyotes rock chucks and one woof. so far they are fun and really do the job nicely!!!

Darrin, H1000 with 180g in the 28 Nosler increases barrel life, stellar accuracy.

Darrin, the 28 Nosler is a very, very good cartridge for your needs, and you are already set up for It! What load were you using that...

I wouldn't say the RL23 info is conservative for charge weight, but is for speed. I have loaded for a lot of .280AIs. With a 175 Elite...

That what I did with my 280ai but I just think what’s confusing me is my 223ai was load, shoot, formed cases no problems at all no false...

I would not cull the barrel based on the teslong inspection, I have seen MUCH worse. I would question the sanity of a Shouldered pre...
