[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 504613, member: 2736"] A very good explanation Woods !!!! Any thing that Dave Manson comments on is worth listening to and may save s shooter lots of problems. I still dont understand why Nosler would change the tried and true dimensions that allow you to shoot standard 280 REM and fire form at the same time. It looks like they have shot themselves in the foot for selling ammo because any re loader that is interested in the AI version would rather not be locked in to one brand of ammo/brass when they can chose from 8 to 10 brands and fire form while hunting. (When properly chambered and head spaced the 280 ammo can be extremely accurate when fired in a Traditional AI chamber). I am currently building a pair of 280 AIs, one is an F class and the other is a lighter hunting rifle. They will have the same chambers and head space so the hunting rifle and match rifle can be used with with standard 280 ammo and fire form at the same time, then load the AI to a higher velocity for the match rifle or larger bullets at the same velocity for hunting. Also if you want to buy premium brass Norma makes it in 280 and 270. Loaded ammo for the Nosler 280 AI version is the only one available at this time, so why would any one to limit themselves to one manufacture when there are lots of brands of ammo and brass for the "Standard" 280 Rem. As we all know some times we may have a ammo problem (Especially these days) and wouldn't it be nice to be able to buy any ammo and save a hunt ? J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
