A local shop has a clean used x2 or x3 stainless synthetic 280 ai on the rack fir $900. I'll have to take a closer look at it next time I'm there.
I have a campfire limited edition x2 in 260 with the fluted 8 twist barrel. It had a little feeding issue but I fixed it and it feeds great. It also shoots really well with 140g vld hunting bullets which is one of my favorite 6.5 bullets. The longer mag box let's me seat them out to where I get enough h4831 in it to drive tge 140 to 2820fps and it groups 1/2 moa.
I was tempted to rebore it to 358 because I have so many 6.5mm rifles but it shoots too well as is. Fir whatever reason I've never taken it hunting. I always seem to reach for something else. I've tried to sell it a few times but no one has ever really showed interest. It is 1 if 25 that Derrick had made for the fire.
