Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 280AI vs 270 Winchester

I wouldn't worry about "just in case" until after the fact. I don't hand load anymore, so I want a plentiful shelf of options. Looking at the 270145 ELDX vs the 280AI 162 ELDX factory offerings from Hornady, there's not enough to worry about. 280AI has a whopping 1.5" less drift at 500 yards and anyone claiming they can read to wind well enough that it matters is full of schit.
