[QUOTE="STEEL SLINGER, post: 1363972, member: 42414"] I just came across this post. . .I'm a 280AI fan as well! I was on the RL26 band wagon for a bit myself. . .very impressed with the velocities it produced without showing excessive presser. I did get velocity swings and POI changes coming from Florida to mid west/north western states and I then switched over to RL23, that cured my problem. I use it in my 6.5 Swede's, .284 Win based cartridges and '06 based cartridges with very good performance across the board. I tried the 4831SC and never achieved the velocity I though my rig should get, but it was accurate. My current pet load for my 280AI is; Norma brass @ 2.515" Berger 168gr. CH Alliant RL23 @ 59gr. Federal 215M primer COAL on ogive is 2.800" Average velocity is 2978 fps with SD/ES in low teens to single digits 26" 1/9tw Krieger barrel Thanks for the post. . .I love reading 280AI stuff! Happy Thanksgiving to all and everyone please be safe. [/QUOTE]
