[QUOTE="addie52, post: 272093, member: 12594"] I don't have any 280 AI experience but have always thought it a interesting cartridge. I had the same question you have, I ended up going with the 7 Rem mag in a savage with a SSS 27" varmint contour barrel and am shooting an average fps with a 168 gr berger of 3208 using 74 grs retumbo. With fireforming loads it shot .355-.416 @ 100 haven't got to test fireformed load accuracey yet should be better. I didn't have much trouble with load developement just picked the powder the primer and bullet and loaded in .5 gr increments until one shot better than the others and didn't have high pressure signs. Hope this helps. adam [/QUOTE]
