pg: I don't know where the RF restrictions are, but lots of fields back here, within driving distance,are small farm fields (by western standards).Houses scattered here and there,with livestock, etc,and farmers don't mind you hunting but noise is a big factor to them.

Many times shots are not really "long" and something that reaches 300 yards will take in most of a days shooting.A cartridge like this is just too convenient,and well suited to a lot of it.

No real trick to stick something bigger in the truck for those times and places you can use it....we have some big fields here too,mostly out along the Connecticutt River on Vermont/NH line.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
