jiminy christmas!! .6 bc and 2800 fps... i can get there with a 162 grain A-max and my 280 Remington... you are making this too easy for me... do not let my wife see this.
The .280 is a very respectable LR machine.... I'd rather have a .280/162 than a .308 Win. That's what's kind of funny to me.... guys build 6.5/284s to launch .575-.640 BC pills at 2800-3000, using 53-58 grains of powder.
All the while the .280 is staring them in the face with it's properly twisted factory barrel.... and copious space in the mag box.... and a plethora of cheap quality brass... throw in the.625 BC 162 Amax for sub-$30/100 and it's a no brainer. Yet, they can't see the forrest through the trees.
