Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds looking for .280 Remington

I had a Ruger M77 tang safety. Loved the rifle, loved the cartridge, hated the terrible accuracy of the rifle.

I sold it and bought a Tikka Chambered in 7-08. I like it, don't love the cartridge as much as I did the darling .280.

I have a Remington Model 700 Long Range in 7mm Rem Mag that I just don't use that I may be able to trade.

Thanks for the help.

I have a Remington 700 280 Remington, it has a factory barrel, cerakoted in black, & has been accurized by Alamo Precision or Hill Country Rifles. Don’t remember which. It has a McMillan sporter stock painted in urban camo.

I have a Borden custom built by Kampfeld Customs in 280 AI.

I've got a Remington 700 XCR ll chambered in 280 Remington that I would sell. Only selling because it sits behind my custom 700 , chambered in the same!.

The rifle is stainless with black nitride coating(factory). I did take off the plastic stock and put on a much lighter B&C Alaskan stock.It shoots 160 grain Sierra GK into nice sub moa groups. It's in excellent condition. If interested, shoot me a pm with your cell number for pictures. I'd need to get $1150 shipped to your FFL.

I got a spare .280 ks

I love my Sako 280.

I have a Sako 280AI, PM if interested.
Thanks, Kyle.

Here's my XCR ii. Scope stays with me.

Message sent late last night on a Winchester Classic Featherweight.

Any interest in the AI version?

I've got a pre64 model 70 in 280ai. Built by Shaen Meagan

Be hard for me to sell a 280 rem.

You gentlemen have some very fine rifles.

That xcr ii for 1150 is where I start if I were looking.
Got a rem 700 from 1986 trued up with a shilen stainless no. 2 and 1150 aint buying mine. 2150 maybe, but not 1150. Great deal there.

And I do believe a good ol 7 express might be the best deer cartridge of all time.

Just so I am clear this is a 280 Ackley Improved (AI) in a IV action. DOn’t want someone to call me out for saying you can squeeze a 280 in a Sako AI action. If someone else is interested PM me.
Bump, Kyle.

Acronin243: I absolutely LOVE my custom pre-64 Winchester Model 70 in caliber 280 Remington!
My local gunshop has a MINT condition Remington 700 stainless "Commemorative Rifle" in caliber 280 Remington - it is similar to the Remington Model 700 LSS Rifles as it has a beautiful laminated gray/black wood stock.
The asking price is $1,250.00 with NO sales tax in Montana. This shop is notorious for "good (and better!) prices on their guns - this rig is kind of the exception as I consider it "full market value".
It MAY be on consignment and the consigning owner set that price?
The shop is closed until January 3rd and their phone number is 406-683-9844 if you are interested.
I have a couple of Remington 700 LSS Rifles and they are DANDIES (one in 243 Winchester and one in 270 Winchester Short Magnum)!
Good luck with your search.

I know you're trying to help the guy out, but posting all that info here will most likely wind up with someone else sniping it.
Better to send in a pm.

That is a beaut!


ya!
