[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 496492, member: 2736"] Like everything else this was just another opinion and possibly an uninformed opinion. The 280 is a great long range caliber if used properly and the 280 AI is slightly better. For years I competed with a 7mm rem mag in 1000 yard matches and the 280 AI is almost the ballistic equal of the 7 mag. With larger bullets it is equal to or better than the 30/06 at long range and the 30/06 held most of the long range records at one time. There is an advantage to the bigger magnums but there are also disadvantages. If you like the 280,go for it. You won't be sorry. Just my opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
