[QUOTE="Flintlock, post: 2029455, member: 6546"] I have been shooting the .280 for many years. Early on I shot Partitions and now I use Accubonds, both of them were 140grn. I have taken Elk, Whitetail, Antelope and pigs with it out 405 yards and wouldn't be hesitant to use it farther if needed. My first one was an old Remington 7 Express (280 with a fancy name) and then I got an Encore rifle barrel made in medium taper, Stainless 24" and use a Burris 4x12 Ballistic Plex. Can't go wrong with the standard 280 unless you just want something different. I tried the .280 AI in an Encore barrel but just didn't feel it got me any better groups or energy so I sold it. Good luck and its not about needing another caliber, it's what you want and go for it. Mike [/QUOTE]
