[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 2149299, member: 103303"] The .280AI offers about ~7.5% more powder capacity over the .280 Rem. This yields not quite a 2% increase in velocity, all other things equal. So, more like 75fps difference between the two... Quality brass options (Peterson), and less trimming (due to the steeper shoulder angle) are also on the table with the AI, but in my experience velocity gains are not quite what some suggest.
