[QUOTE="59FLH, post: 2095760, member: 108480"] For those of you who have and those of you who do, what has been your experience for accuracy? I am in the process of re-barreling a few actions and one of them could end up 280AI. If the accuracy is acceptable I will shoot straight 280 rounds until I have a qty of fire formed Ackley brass. If I can fire form my way to Ackley with 280 Rem ammo I most likely will do it, if not I will have to think about the cost and effort, and may just re-barrel in 280 Remington. I can take a junk .284 barrel and ream it into 280AI so's not to wear and tear the new barrel fireforming, but I don't want to waste bullets, powder and primers, or I can COW with some toilet paper and Hi-Score, AA#2 etc....but I'm really not that bored. If the ammo shoots accurate its a no brainer. Please reply with your experience shooting 280 Remington ammo out of a rifle chambered 280AI, just because I can doesn't mean I should. [/QUOTE]
