[QUOTE="Warrenoliver, post: 3008575, member: 113557"] My Montana Rifle Company 280AI has been rebarreled with a 24” 1:8 twist. I have two good hunting loads with the 143 Hammer Hunter bullet and have taken 2 bull elk and several bucks. My loads are: Peterson brass, Federal GM215M primer, loaded with a COAL of 3.34” to fit in my magazine. Powder loads are: 61.5 gr H4831 @ 3100 fps. < 0.4 @ 100 yds 61 gr RL-23 @ 3100 fps. <0.4” @ 100yds I’ve been playing around with the new tipped version which is the 145 HHT and used 60 gr H4831@ 3080 fps to harvest a nice buck this fall. Hope this helps. The 280AI really likes both H4831 and RL23. I get a touch more speed with RL23. Warren [/QUOTE]
