Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 280 Ross

I bought a group of guns that includes a Ross model 10 in 280 Ross. I have no idea how to get ammo or components for it. Anyone have any ideas?

Nobody knows anything about a Ross?

Are you aware of the article in #187(Jan.2000)of RIFLE magazine by Ross Seyfried (".280 Ross")?

No I wasn't, I'll check it out. Where would I find it?

midway has a die set on sale

the nominal bullet diameter is .287

back when, I had one that was inaccurate with any .284 bullets but shot a heavy .287 gas check quite well (2"@100 with iron sights)

The M-10 bolt could, with great effort, be assembled incorrectly so that the interrupted thread bolt head would not rotate and lock.

here's a good thread on ross rifles:
