No as a matter of fact.

I owned two differ 280 AI's and could never get past 3,150 with a 140.

The 7 mag did get 3,350.

Like what was said before, pressure for pressure, there is not an 06 based case that can get within 200 fps of a magnum case.



I guess the question of the day then is: Would you carry a 6 lb, scoped 7 mag over a 6 lb scoped 280AI for the 200 fps difference?

Why is it called a double u, should'nt it be called a double v?
