[QUOTE="packgoatguy, post: 1556780, member: 27192"] This spreadsheet isn't meant to compare rifle systems. I think we can safely assume that with the right rifle, and the right load workup, a person could make any cartridge on this list shoot 1/4 MOA... I haven't seen any evidence to suggest that any of the calibers are inherently MORE or LESS accurate than others (if I am mistaken, lets get some data on that). In that case, then the rifle platform is irrelevant for this analysis, because any of these calibers could be put into any rifle platform. The real question is, what makes the various cartridges different. For example: At the end of the day, if the 280AI is more limited in case capacity than the 28 Nosler or the 7MMRUM, and if pushed to their max, the 28N or the 7RUM beats the 280AI in velocity with the same bullet... then what real advantage would the 280AI ever have over the alternative? That is the question. [/QUOTE]
