[QUOTE="Sam Summey, post: 1690705, member: 109601"] I have a 280AI that I built 16 years ago, it uses 10-15% less powder and surrenders only about 100 fps to the 7mm Mag as long as the bullets are 165ish and below. I will take it to Colorado this Nov to hunt Elk using 162g Hornady ELD-X. I do not feel "under gunned". 280 AI ammo is becoming more and more common with Federal, Nosler and Hornady loading for it. It is a more tame (less recoil) than the 7 Mag. As a gunsmith I put a lot of muzzle breaks on magnum rifles. [/QUOTE]
