[QUOTE="LRangepro, post: 782805, member: 9174"] A bit late to this post, but I built a 280 AI in 08 or 09 for tactical matches, I've shot both Berger 168s and 180s with GREAT results in a 27 inch Krieger, 1/9 twist. I shoot it at about 3060 with 168s, no pressure signs and about 1 inch groups at 500 yards. (.896 my best averages around 1 -1.2) I can get about 3000 with the 180s as well but its starting to look like max at that point. Standard reamer was used, bullets seated to reach lands and still fit in 700 LA BDL mag and feed great. Super sonic to a mile and about 22 MOA at 1000 yards. I cant say enough about this for long range. Most people never consider heavy bullets with a 280...but they should! Also case life seems forever with just a kiss on the shoulder, less than a thou. and never need to trim after first time. [/QUOTE]
