[QUOTE="Bill in AZ, post: 2098795, member: 117241"] I bought a 280 Rem Improved 40 degree reamer and then a couple years ago bought 200 pieces of new Nosler 280 Ackley Improved brass in the 50 piece boxes. Also have a set of Redding dies marked 280 Remington Imp 40 degree. I still have not built the rifle over concerns that the chamber will not match up with ammo made with my dies and if either will work with my expensive (virgin) brass. I have been a handloader for 35 years and this is a mess. If I did not have some $400tied up in reamer. dies, and brass I would abandon this mess and go with 284 Winchester (but brass for this is another obstacle). This 280 Improved with what appears to be two standards (but then one story is they are the same?) has me over a barrel. I have about 10 PT&G reamers and have had stellar results with them, Shipping has been 1 week to 4 weeks as stated at time of order. [/QUOTE]
