[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1675859, member: 103303"] Maybe it's a backward-academic way to go about things, but I look at what bullet I want to shoot first, and then decide how much powder I need to push it. Given your requirements I'd be looking for a 140-160gr bullet between 2850-3000fps. For one limited to factory ammo, don't overlook the 270 Win, but for a reloader, 280 offers incremental gains. I'd suggest 280Rem/280RCBS/280AI. Personally love my 280Rem as a deer rifle. [/QUOTE]
