[QUOTE="NW NM hunter, post: 3079591, member: 122861"] You have info on the cartridge, but what do you want in a rifle, light weight, fast twist, short, long, etc? What do you want to do with it. Those questions help answer your questions. I ask because as an example some 280ai's have a faster twist than others to shoot heavies or heavier mono's. I bought the browning xbolt speed long range with a faster twist intending to shoot heavy and it wasn't where I wanted it to be speed wise. Currently my son hunts with it shooting 140 grain absolute hunters at 3200+fps and does really well and i moved to a 7prc to get where i wanted. Also use the search function someone just went through some of the same questions recently. [/QUOTE]
