[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1600545, member: 103947"] I think the straight .280 is an excellent cartridge and too often overlooked. The Ackley version even better offering very similar ballistics to the 7rm. IMO, if your going to shoot 160 class bullets, stick with the 280 AI. If you want to run 175-183s, go with the 7rm. The extra capacity of the RM will show in those heavier bullets. Go heavier than the 183s and I'd do a 28 Nosler or 7rum. This is what I would do as I own 284s, 7rm and a 28 Nosler. I believe there is a place for each of those cartridges. If only one gun to cover all those bullet weight classes, I would choose the 7RM. [/QUOTE]
