[QUOTE="bronco, post: 656191, member: 48575"] I would take a hard look at the 280AI. Just a barrel swap and your shooting. 7MM bullet have a great BC. Factory 280AI ammo is now available for you to shoot and collect your brass for when you do start reloading. Standard 280 Rem ammo shoots great and also leaves you with a great fireformed case for later. You can load 120grn pills that will beat the performance of the 25-06. Hot AI loads nip at the 7mm Mag's heels out of an '06 based case. You can load it heavy with 160grn or 175grn and have a load capable for just about anything. I have no problem making 500-700 yard shots on antelope with 140 accubonds. So far ALL DRT. Just my opinion. I like the versatility of this cartridge from long range coyotes and deer to serious elk or moose thumping. [/QUOTE]
