I'm heading to the range this AM with my 280AI. I put it together three years ago and I've never carried it hunting.
Ran out of it's favorite bullet, the 150 Ballistic Tip and couldn't find anymore for months. Then a friend slid me a partial box so we are back in business.
It's just a '77 vintage 700 action with a 23" Shilen #2 in a Mountain Rifle pattern Edge, a Rifle Basix trigger and and a 3.5-10 gunmetal grey Leupy. Pretty standard campfire stuff.
My oldest has a near twin to it in a lefty 700.
