[QUOTE="montana west, post: 1935309, member: 113504"] The 280 with a 160 should do 2850 or better mine will do 2900 with r=25 26 easy of course remington always loaded the factory 200 fps slower becauld always use a 7mm rem mag.. for elk you talking about an animal that weights is 850 #s some company should load the 280 with the box saying modern bolt action rifles ONLY. With the same pressure the 280 should give the same vel with a 160 as the 270 win with a 150. as the 280 case will hold a bit more powder , because the body of the case is a bit longer with a bit shorter neck as both cases are 64mm in length.
