[QUOTE="PGJPJ, post: 1269514, member: 90674"] I did a 280ai with a 1:8 twist. For big game hunting, I'd say you have good ballistics to about 800 yards (at least with the 168 grainers). I'm shooting the Barns LRX in 168 grains. The 28 will give you more range (as others have stated). Also, if you want to push the 195 grain Bergers, the 280ai isn't going to have the horsepower. It just depends on what you want. For me, 800 yards is "long range" for targets, and probably 600 yards for a hunting range. But that's just me... [/QUOTE]
