Please let us know what powder/primer combo your using in that 270 and 280 to launch a 160gr bullet 3000+fps.
If I could have ever found a combo that would actually do that with a 7mm Rem mag I'd still have one.
On paper the high BC 160 gr 7mm bullets @ 3000 fps looks pretty good. From a rifle where recoil is indistinguishable from a comparable weight 30-06. I was able to hit 3000 fps with some loads, but with horrible accuracy. To get acceptable accuracy closer to 2900 fps was the best I could do. At the time I was getting 2950 fps with 180's out of a 300 WSM and 2800 from a 30-06 with the accuracy I wanted. I really wanted to like the 7 mag, but let it go.
