With a 6.5-06AI, .280 Rem and 7mm RM, I really feel like I need to plug the holes. Just can't figure out if what I need most/next is a .264 Win Mag, .270 Win, .270 WSM or WBY, 7mm-08, 7x57, or .280 AI.

Or maybe a 7mm Rem Express or 7mm-06 ... wink


(Full disclosure: Actually, a Ruger #1 in .45-70 is highest on the list and I don't plan on that any time soon.)


If you already have a 280 Rem, will getting a 7MM Rem Express fill a cartridge gap or a name gap?





Definitely a cartridge gap.

The .280 Rem is older and somewhat passé compared to the newer 7mm Rem Express. wink

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
