Haven't tried any bullet under 162gr in mine but your quidelines seem good.
I get a bit more velocity due to the 26" barrel and the fact that I'm comfortable pushing up to near 65K.
Even though I'm a full grain under the max MagPro load, and I'm getting no pressure signs I'll likely call this max.
I may try 65gr to see if I run into pressure. If I don't I'm going to shoot for 3100 with the 162 Amax just to see if I can get there. I'll likely dial my hunting loads down to the 64gr level at 3050.
Anyone get into the 3100's with a 160 in the 280AI?
