Mark Bansner always comes to the Dallas Safari Club Convention each January. I noticed on the exhibator list that he and Tom Webb, his right hand man, will be there again in January 2012. Why not come and talk to him in person. McWhorter is good, but Mark is just an all around nice guy.

I've looked At mcwhorters but spending 4500 on a blueprinted Remington 700 seems a little stiff

[quote=163bc] So I started using the 270,and a lighter, trimmer 7 mag up there.....that is what I use still.Obviously what the 270 will do the 280 will do as well.There are no deer anywhere that I would not hunt with the 280. I gotta get up there soon and get after some of those hog bucks  If I left tomorrow i would be packing my 280 Bansner or my Grandpa's 270 Win.

One thing is darn near certain between McWhorter or Bansner you can hardly go wrong. 163bc

I have a bansner ultimate one and a mcwhorter signature. I like both, but if choosing one it would be bansner. Mark is great to deal with and my rifle shoots .25 with factory ammo everyday and just has a better feel to me.
However, both rifles are safe queens thanks to Gene Simillion. You didn't ask but before I spent 4500 on either I would call Gene. His scope mounts alone are worth the price difference.

Gene built my 7mmMashburn Super.....I do love that rifle!
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
