[QUOTE="preacherman, post: 56995, member: 2494"] Greenhorn... you're pretty close... the factory 280 is fired in your improved chamber and "voila", the expanded, fired case is a 280AI... and you can always shoot factory ammo in a pinch; as far as recoil, performance etc... it would be similar to 7mag but not exactly equal... as far as the airlines goes, I'm pretty sure you must pack ammo separately and specifically according to their regulations, you'll want to consult with them first; only requirement to convert to 280Ai is to have your gunsmith ream the chamber and re-set the barrel for you... any competent smith only needs the reamer to do this job for you...good shooting [/QUOTE]
