[QUOTE="Ridgerunner665, post: 967517, member: 12660"] You can form 280 AI brass from 270...I'm not sure of the process and there might be some length issues, I believe 280 brass is longer than 270 by a little bit. I have a 280 AI being built right now (Nosler Custom)...so I'm in the learning phase too, but I've been reading all I could find for a couple of months now. I'd recommend either starting off by fireforming regular 280 brass...or buying Nosler 280 AI brass...I'm going with Nosler brass myself...if you decide to use Nosler, make sure whoever chambers your rifle uses a SAAMI spec reamer...or you "might" still need to fireform the Nosler brass...some have had problems, some haven't...its a long story that nobody agrees on...but if your chamber is cut with a SAAMI spec reamer...you'll be fine either way.
