OK, here�s data from Nosler #5 for the .280 Rem AI and the 7mm RM, all from 24" barrels. Draw your own conclusions.

140g @ 3340fps, 67.5g Re22, 7mm RM
140g @ 3196fps, 63.0g Re22, .280 Rem AI

+ 144fps, 4.5g powder, 7mm RM

150g @ 3248fps, 63.0g IMR4350, 7mm RM
150g @ 3107fps, 63.0g IMR7828, .280 Rem AI

Yep, I'm not debating anything here, just pointing out that not all the #6 data was shot with a 26" barrel. Guess I should have been more clear about that and saved you the trouble of digging up more data!
