The 280 is a great cartridge;just like a 270.If you've used one, you've used the other.Arguments for the superiority of one over the other are kinda funny,actually.
But the only way I'd own one again is if I stumbled over a really nice rifle that I really liked a lot,like a sexy custom Mauser or something.I'd justify it by saying"....well, it ain't a 270, but it's just like it..."Beyond that, the cartridge holds no mysteries, or magic, for me.Ditto the 280AI.I'll take the 270 Win any old day.
